An old priest walked to and fro at times looking up from his breviary to say a pleasant word or to check some threatening quarrel. Presently he paused beside the boy who was at the moment intently watching a bird on a branch overhead. As the priest turned the boy had thrown himself on the grass and was laughing heartily. "What amuses thee my son" said the father. "I am laughing at the birds." "And why do they make thee laugh Fran The Century Co unknown books

18944271London George routledge and Sons 1894 Première édition. Bougran brun avec des planches illustrées avec des dessins et des titres dorés et noirs. La dorure est un peu frottée et il y a quelques bosses sur les bords. La reliure est un peu bosselée et l'une des illustrations (p118) est partiellement détachée (sur la moitié inférieure) mais tient encore en place. Petite réparation sur le bord de l'illustration du frontis avec du ruban adhésif d'archivage. Quelques soulignements au crayon sur des mots difficiles tout au long de l'ouvrage suggèrent que celui-ci a été utilisé comme support pédagogique. Il y a un trou assez important à la page 65/66 (voir photographies). Dans l'ensemble, l'ouvrage est en assez bon état. Il s'agit essentiellement d'une réédition des fables d'Esope avec la morale à la fin de chaque conte. Gravures attrayantes en noir et blanc. Viii, 280 pages. 190 mm x 150 mm
