Spenser, Edmund. Spencer's Minor Poems Containing The Shepheardes Calender, Complaints, Daphnaida, Colin Clouts, Come Home Again, Amoretti, Hymnes, Epithalamion, Prothalamiion, Sonnets and Sundrie Other Verses, one of 200 copies in an edition of 215, Chelsea, The Ashendene Press, 1925. Quarter brown cowhide and vellum, folio. ' There is a larger use of blue than in any of the other books, the 'Glosses' in 'The Shepheardes Calendar,' as well as many of the large initials, being printed in this colour. For this reason, and because of the varying length of the lines of the different poems included in the volume, it presented a more than usually difficult and interesting typographical problem.'
