[Printed handbill.] A few Tingling Rhymes On Much Wenlock Chimes.

1p., 12mo. Good, on lightly-aged pink wove paper. Within fancy border. Beneath the title a four-line epigram by 'Cook', beginning 'The School-boy remembers his holiday ramble'. The poem proper, of twenty lines, is signed in type at the end 'J. H.' It begins: 'Oh! Wenlock Chimes, the dear old Chimes, | You carry us back to by-gone times,' and ends, 'And 'ere your notes their rest have found, | Cheer all our Friends the Wrekin round.' The word 'your' in the penultimate line is printed 'you', with the final 'r' added in manuscript. Following the poem: 'Copy of an inscription engraved on a brass plate affixed to the Chime Barrel', beneath which, enclosed within a ruled border: 'These Chimes were restored by James Hanny, Wyle Cop, Shrewsbury, at the sole cost of Richard Taylor Davies, Esq., Mayor of Much Wenlock, A.D. 1868. | R. C. BLAKEWAY | EDW. INSTONE, | } Churchwardens.' Scarce: no copy in the British Library or on COPAC. The poem was reprinted in 1886 in 'Salopian Shreds and Patches'.
