Description:
London: E. Bell, J. Darby [et al.], 1724. 8vo, pp. [966]; lexicon in double column; Alston V, 95; Kennedy 6215; Vancil, p. 12; together with: Bailey, N[athan], The universal etymological dictionary ... Vol. II. London: Thomas Cox, 1727; first edition, pp. [960]; lexicon in double column; a few woodcut illustrations in the text of a mostly heraldic nature; both volumes in contemporary full paneled calf (but not matching exactly), neatly rebacked, red morocco labels on spines. A matched set of the second editions of Bailey's two popular dictionaries, the second, rather enigmatic volume supplementing the first, and not often found together. Volume II is, according to Alston, "a supplementary volume" which "enjoyed a separate publishing existence." Alston V, 128; see also Starnes & Noyes, The English Dictionary from Cawdrey to Johnson, chapters XIV and XV.
