A manuscript fair copy of the third edition of Lord Byron's riposte to the apalling review of his Hours of Idleness, published in the Edinburgh Review . Why such a laborious exercise as copying the whole was undertaken is not clear, as the book was clearly easily available. It was perhaps, literally, a labour of love?

From the guide to the English Bards and Scotch Reviewers (copy), 1817, (University of Exeter)
