1. RUBAIYAT OF OMAR KHAYYAM.
_RENDERED INTO ENGLISH VERSE BY EDWARD FITZGERALD._
This is not a mere reprint of “The Bibelot” edition, but has been edited
with a view to making FitzGerald’s wonderful version indispensable in its
present OLD WORLD shape.
The following are special features that as a whole can only be found in
THE OLD WORLD edition:
I. An entirely new biographical sketch of Edward FitzGerald by
Mr. W. Irving Way of Chicago.
II. Parallel texts of the First and Fourth editions, printed
the one in Italic and the other in Roman type on opposite
pages, the better to distinguish them.
III. Variorum readings giving all textual changes occurring in
the Second, Third and Fourth editions.
IV. The omitted quatrains of the rare Second Edition of 1868.
To the student of literature these cancelled readings are of
the greatest interest and value.
V. A bibliography of all English versions and editions revised
to date.
VI. Finally, three poems upon Omar and FitzGerald, not
generally known, are here given, just as in The Bibelot
Edition, two poems were there reprinted as fitting foreword and
finale.
