8vo., text in Latin and English, neat contemporary signature on front free endpaper; contemporary full roan, sides with double frame border in blind, back with six flat bands, brown top, hinges starting (but binding entirely sound), a very good, clean copy.
A scarce edition of the 'Oxford Statutes' designed for the use of schools and academies. Whilst the extracts themselves are given in the original Latin, some sections outlining the several scholarships and prizes are presented in English. A nice copy of a mid-Victorian edition of a compilation originally promulgated in 1671. See Cordeaux & Merry, 1089.
