London. Printed for W.Griffin. 1772
Tall 8vo. In blue hard card covers with leather spine and corners. 23pp. With engraved vignette on main title page. In very good condition. Spine renewed and hinges strengthened.

All pages slightly darkened by age with occasional small marks. Slight stains to corners of endpapers. Seventh edition of Goldsmith’s famous poem. Goldsmith revisits Auburn, a village of which he had fond memories, and marks the depopulation brought about through the emigration of its peasant community and the enclosure movement. He mourns over the state of a society where "wealth accumulates and men decay". Using images pertaining to the land in his poem, he gives to his readers a sense of what it was like to live in the countryside during modernization and how it has destroyed the land the former inhabitants worked so hard to maintain.
