- Abstract
- en_US This little pamphlet has four folded pages. It starts with a page featuring the upper half of a hawk and Now I will tell a tale to princes who will understand it:… Two facing pages then present Hesiod's fable. The next page points a moral to Perses. The work seems almost an experiment in the presentation of typeface. That first page includes three different sets of print. The final page presents words that run over into the next line and one line printed mirror-backwards. The colophon page -- headed by Greek letters KOLOPHON -- presents two other typefaces. The binding is a lovely white thread.
