Though William Somerville died at Edstone on 

 the 17th of July, 1742, editions of his principal work, 

 The Chase, have appeared in constant succession 

 during the present century, so I append the most 

 valuable editions. An edition, however, was pub- 

 lished as lately as 1896, with illustrations by Mr. 

 Hugh Thomson. Full details of his life are to be 

 found in the Dictio7iary of National Biography and 

 in the works of Shenstone, who describes him as 

 improvident and an intemperate drinker. Dr. John- 

 son mentions him in his Lives of the Poets. 



The Chase. By William Somerville. ist ed. 1735. 

 4to. Not illustrated.
