Text: [...] Our 'Lord Herbert of Cherbury' was issued in a limited edition of 300 copies at 4 guineas, and went out of print immediately after publication. I think however that you may still be able to obtain a copy through Mr. [J.] Kyrle Fletcher [added in Maynard's hand of Newport Mon] | We have a copy of Herbert's 'Life of King Henry VIII' which has not, to my knowledge, been reprinted since the 1649 edition, which you have.

One page, cr. 8vo, fold marks, very good condition. He has written to enquire about the Press's Comus. This book was issued recently and a prospectus was sent to you before its publication. In case you have not received this I enclose another with this letter. I regret that we are unable to send out our books of sale and return as the editions are so small and the books so expensive and so delicate that it is impossible to allow them to go out in this way.
