Reprint of the original, first published in 1875.

This collection of Alexander Popes poetry showcases his genius and brilliancy as a satirist. He portrays the foppishness and absurd attitudes of that era. His trademark heroic couplets combined with the brilliant use of language mesmerize and exhilarate. This poetical collection has all a Pope-fan would want to know and enjoy. Marvellous!
