HANDWRITING AND COMPOSITION BOOK; early 18th cent. Italian. Contains miscellaneous pieces of verse and prose written out mainly, it would appear, as schoolroom exercises. One piece copied (f. 16) takes the form of a letter from Maria Maddalena Mellini Casale to an unnamed sister, dated Rome, 26 Jan. 1707. Paper; ff. i + 73. 260 mm. x 180 mm. XVIII cent. Ff. 1-9, with nine blank unnumbered leaves, and 56-73, are added leaves wrapped round the original book by way of a continuation. Armorial bookplate of Frederick North, 5th Earl of Guilford (d. 1827), f. i. The MS. is not certainly identifiable in the Guilford sale-cats. of 15 Dec. 1828-17 Dec. 1835.
