Title: All trivia: Trivia, More trivia, Afterthoughts, Last words
Description: "Excerpt from Trivia Printed From the Papers of Anthony Woodhouse, Esq.: When the books and papers of the late Mr. Anthony Woodhouse came into my possession, I found this little collection of essays and sketches, neatly tied up with string and labelled "Trivia." They have for their subject incidents and experiences of the year or two he spent in London, after leaving Oxford. He seems to have worked at them at different times, endeavouring, apparently, to find a prose-form in which to express moods and feelings generally supposed to belong to the province of verse. But evidently the result did not satisfy him, and he put "Trivia" away among his other papers. I have, however, thought it worth while to print a few copies of this little book - giving as it does a picture of Mr. Woodhouse's life and thoughts, it will be at least of interest to his friends."
