[The preface only. There is no mention of either a Dublin preface or edition (if an entire edition was ever printed) in Lowndes, and the writer of Pope's Life in the Dictionary of National Biography" was unable to refer to either. The Shakespeare Catalogue of the British Museum likewise makes no mention of a Dublin edition or preface of this date, and, therefore, this preface is probably simply a trial proof. The most interesting circumstances attached to this preface are that it was printed in Dublin the same year (1725) that Pope's first edition appeared in London, and that it is in octavo form, whereas the latter, published by Jacob Tonson, is in quarto.--Catalogue.] 4037 Shakespeare (W.)
