Copy of The satires of Decimus Junius Juvenalis, translated into English verse by Mr. Dryden and several other eminent hands; together with the satires of Aulus Persius Flaccus, made English by Mr. Dryden, 1693 [manuscript], copy ca. 1695.

Copy of the printed edition of 1693, including the title page, but with some changes: does not include Dryden's prefatory discourse on satire; all the notes are together at the end, instead of following each satire; and has some extra material: two satires of Juvenal (3 and 13) imitated by Mr. Oldham, 1682; and the 8th satire translated to the 56th verse by Mr. Dennis, p. 289, taken from the Gentleman's Journal for October 1692.
