    Gems from Fable-Land: A Collection of Fables Illustrated by Facts 

    Bourne, Wm. Oland (Charles Scribner, 1853)

    Phaedrus, Select Fables: Translated Literally In the Latin Order, For the Use Of Charterhouse School 

    Phaedrus (M. Sewell/Kessinger Publishing's Legacy Reprints, 1853)

    Phaedrus; Riley, Henry T; Smart, Christopher; Terence (Henry G. Bohn, 1853)
    There is a detailed T of C on iv-viii, listing page numbers for both prose and poetry. The prose adds new fables attributed to Phaedrus and Aesopian fables from unknown authors. A random check finds the verse translations good.

    La Fontaine et ses Fables 

    Taine, Hippolyte (Librairie Hachette, 1853)
    I include this book in the collection because I have heard or read more than once that it is a classic, one of the two or three books one must read on La Fontaine. I look forward to it.…

    Book of Fables Illustrated by Facts from Real Life 

    Bourne, William Oland (T. Nelson and Sons, 1853)
