Abstract
This is my sixth different copy of this little book. Chronologically, it fits fifth of the six. It seems most similar to the Baltimore edition of 1823. It follows the general pattern of American editions set by the Philadelphia edition of 1804, as opposed to the editions done in Dublin and London. Thus it presents the running vocabulary for each fable right underneath its text. This edition does not, however have the Publisher's Advertisement of the Baltimore edition recounting problems with the old editions and claiming to have improved perhaps above two thousand phrases, involving the most important idioms of the two languages… As in the Baltimore edition, the boy with the butterfly is an enfant (50). This little book experienced some water damage and the binding seems abnormally tight.
