Privately printed Dublin edition of an adaptation of Scott's "Marmion", which is otherwise unrecorded. The author William Gore was an Anglo-Irish MP and occasional writer, best-known for his 1813 gothic play "The Necromancer" (after his marriage in 1815 to Mary Jane Ormsby, daughter and heiress of Owen Ormsby, he assumed by Royal licence the additional surname of Ormsby the same year).
Bound with an additional manuscript title page, lettered in red, blue & black ink: 'Scott's Marmion Dramatised by William Gore Esq and Illustrated by Miss Harriet Pigott'. Illuminated in pen & ink with a coat of arms ('In Hoc Signo Vinces'), and a military-themed tailpiece of drum, musket, sword and laurel leaves.  The 55-page text has been window-mounted, and extra-illustrated with ten original pen & ink drawings, with captions in manuscript. The illustrator is possibly the travel writer and memoirist Harriet Pigott (1775-1846).
Bound in green leather with gilt borders and spine, and silk endpapers and pastedowns by C. Lewis (presumably Charles Lewis of London).
