With eight wood engravings by Leon Underwood.
Judge thou the lips of those that are rose against me, and their devices against me all the day. Behold their sitting down, and their rising up. “I am their music”

“Music is my life.” If there be any music coming from behind the moon it echoes faintlier than does the crackle of the hearth fire, it is drowned by the piping voices of our children. We being human, may pause to listen now and then, half whistfully, it may be for an unrememberable cadence which only the young hear.
My binding is in vellum and black goatskin with my design impression within. Tooled in blind small circles, with onlays on mid-grey reaching out, and orange onlays suggesting behind the moon. The leaves are sewn together on five Irish linen tapes with an attractive mid grey endpaper. It is housed in an up and over protective box, covered in black buckram and lined inside with suede. The title is hand lettered in real gold along the spine.
Price: Sorry, SOLD
