The Cynic's Posy.

London, Greening and Co. 1904 First edition. Original green cloth, top edge gilt. 8vo. pp. [8], 56.Monkshood's claim to a place in the Nineties' pantheon relies primarily on his volume of verse, "Nightshades" (1899), dedicated to Theodore Wratislaw. The present volume is a collection of stylish aphorisms and epigrams, which the writer hoped would be "purchased by charmingly decorative women who will read it while their hair is being brushed by handmaidens." Covers and spine a little dull.
