No pages 1-4 in the main sequence.
Anthology of British poetry printed for the Parisian market. It includes poems by Scottish poets: Burns, Scott, James Beattie, etc. It is likely that it is an expanded version of a collection which had appeared under the same title in Paris in 1803, under the editorship of Angelo Vergani (d. 1813). Many of the poems in Vergani's 1803 anthology are included but there are now 178 poems (Vergani's only had 62).
