Written after death of his son while Percy and Mary Shelley struggled with their grief in Pisa the poem consists of four stanzas with three sections charting the change of seasons. It is set in a garden bursting with blooms but highlights the sensitive plant-a mimosa-with its humble leafy foliage. Human will is nothing in the face of the impartial power of nature and time. First published in Prometheus Unbound and Other Poems 1820 here it has been reproduced with a delicate binding to match its subject. <br /> <br /> "For the Sensitive Plant has no bright flower;<br /> Radiance and odour are not its dower;<br /> It loves even like Love its deep heart is full<br /> It desires what it has not the Beautiful!"<br /> <br /> "The Riviere Bindery was one of the most notable and prolific shops in London's West End from about 1840 through 1939" Princeton. Bath-based Bayntun Bindery acquired the firm in 1939 transforming into the "Bayntun-Riviere bindery" which is still in existence and family owned. Robt. Riviere & Son unknown

Bath-based Bayntun Bindery acquired the firm in 1939 transforming into the "Bayntun-Riviere bindery" which is still in existence and family owned. A similar binding but without the quotations on the borders of both covers was sold in the Chevalier sale at Christie's New York Friday November 9th 1990 lot 63; it had been previously sold to Paul Chevalier by David Brass and then later to another private collector. Loosely inserted in the Chevalier copy was a pencilled note identified by a second description as being in the hand of George Napier an Edinburgh collector who commissioned a number of bindings. Napier explains his purchase of the book from Rivière in 1932 and that he commissioned the special border now decorating the book. He adds that "George" at Rivière's explained that the chalice and serpent motif was designed by Alberto Sangorski brother of George Sangorski the binder and concludes with the mention of the "Great Omar" which sank with the Titanic.<br /> <br /> Fitzgerald attributed the original work to the famed astronomer and mathematician Omar Khayyum and this collection of quatrains rapidly became a favored text of the Pre-Raphaelites. "Like the Odyssey or the Vita Nuova it was once the most widely known and quoted work of Victorian poetry in the world" and its place in Western culture at the time was secured by Fitzgerald's "epigrammatic sophisticated often mordant verses that display Fitzgerald's adroitness in handling this stanza form" Warner. Yet with rise of Modernism the Rubaiyat fell out of style for a time its lush and romantic orientalism considered out of step with the concerns of those who were living through a devastating World War. But the beautiful surviving copies in exceptional vellum silk and leather alongside recently released critical editions have helped draw attention back to the Rubaiyat's beauty and its role in inspiring so many monumental pieces of Victorian art and literature. Here illustrations by Gilbert James 1865-1941 illustrate the dramatic and sensorial prose. Robt. Riviere & Son unknown
