INTRODUCTION
The present volume contains all the stories and verses for children
which we know Charles and Mary Lamb to have written. The text is
that
of the first or second editions, as explained in the Notes. _The
Poetry for Children_ and _Prince Dorus_ have been set up from the
late
Andrew W. Tuer's facsimiles. The large edition of this volume
contains
all the original pictures, together with the apochryphal _Beauty
and
the Beast_.
In Mr. Bedford's design for the cover of this edition certain Elian
symbolism will be found. The upper coat of arms is that of Christ's
Hospital, where Lamb was at school; the lower is that of the Inner
Temple, where he was born and spent many years. The figures at the
bells are those which once stood out from the fa?de of St.
Dunstan's
Church in Fleet Street, and are now in Lord Londesborough's garden
in
Regent's Park. Lamb shed tears when they were removed. The tricksy
sprite and the candles (brought by Betty) need no explanatory words
of
mine.
