upon the reverse) pp. iii-iv; _Contents_ of Vol. III pp. v-xi; p. xii is

thus, "_G. Woodfall and Son_, _Printers_, _Angel Court_, _Skinner

volume. The signatures are _a_ (2 leaves), _b_ (4 leaves), B to S

Issued in dark blue cloth boards, with white paper back-labels, lettered
"_Lavengro_; / _the_ / _Scholar_, / _the Gypsy_, / _and_ / _the Priest_.
/ _By George Borrow_ / _Vol. i_. [_Vol. ii_., _&c._]" The leaves measure
7.75 x 4.875 inches. The edition consisted of 3,000 Copies. The
published price was 30_s._

A Second Edition (miscalled _Third Edition_) was issued in 1872; a Third
(miscalled _Fourth_) in 1888; and a Fourth (miscalled _Fifth_) in 1896.
To the edition of 1872 was prefixed a new _Preface_, in which Borrow
replied to his critics in a somewhat angry and irritable manner. Copies
of the First Edition of _Lavengro_ are to be met with, the three volumes
bound in one, in original publishers' cloth, bearing the name of the firm
of Chapman and Hall upon the back. These copies are 'remainders.' They
were made up in 1870. It is by no means unlikely that in 1872 some
confusion prevailed as to the nature of this subsidiary issue, and that
it was mistaken for a Second Edition of the book. If so the incorrect
numbering of the edition of that date, the actual Second Edition, may be
readily accounted for.

An important edition of _Lavengro_ is:

_Lavengro_ / _By George Borrow_ / _A New Edition_ / _Containing the
unaltered Text of the Original Issue_; / _some Suppressed Passages now
printed for the_ / _first time_; _MS. Variorum_, _Vocabulary and Notes_ /
_By the Author of_ / _The Life of George Borrow_ / _London_ / _John
Murray_, _Albemarle Street_ / 1900.--Crown 8vo, pp. xxviii + 569.

The book was reprinted in 1911. The Editor was Dr. William Knapp.

An edition of _Lavengro_, with a valuable Introduction by Mr. Theodore
Watts-Dunton, was published by Messrs. Ward, Lock & Co., in 1893. The
work is also included in _Everyman's Library_, and in other series of
popular reprints.

When put to press in February, 1849, the first volume of _Lavengro_ was
set up with the title-page reading as follows:--

_Life_, _A Drama_. / _By_ / _Geor
