    Fables de J. de la Fontaine 

    La Fontaine, Jean de (Librarie de S.R. UrbinoS.R. Urbino, Libraire, 1870)
    A handy little volume of the complete fables. Very good paper. The engravings are nicely done--but most lack sparkle. The best are of the monkey and dolphin (120) and of the miser's hole (135). Identical with the 1875 ...
