Fourth of 5 volumes in 8vo. pp. vi, 476. Original cloth. Includes bookplate of Robert Frederick Green on front pastedown. See A. & J. Freeman, John Payne Collier. Scholarship and Forgery in the Nineteenth Century. New Haven, 2004, II, A92a, calling (p. 1243) for an engraved portrait of Spenser in vol. 1, struck for the Pickering edition of 1825 and purchased by Bell and Daldy in 1856, which is frequently (as here) absent. In this edition of the work of Edmund Spenser Collier used a spurious Drayton folio and dubious Marston quartos. He also seized the opportunity to unremittingly censure his critic Henry John Todd, editor of an earlier Spenser volume (1805). Collier’s ‘Life of Spenser’ has also drawn some critical attention. Content: bk. V. The legend of Artegall, canto XI-XII. bk. VI. The legend of S. Calidore, canto I-XII. Two cantos of Mutabilitie, canto VI-VIII. Miscellanies. See also A. & J. Freeman, John Payne Collier. Scholarship and Forgery in the Nineteenth Century. New Haven, 2004, II, pp. 833-837; 842-853. <a href="https://catalyst.library.jhu.edu/permalink/01JHU_INST/1lu78g9/alma991039186649707861" rel="nofollow">Click here to view the Johns Hopkins University catalog record.</a>
