| Feature | Note |
|---|---|
| Author attributions | Regular; all Pope, as indicated by title page. |
| Binding | Bound in vellum over boards with gilt lettering on spine and sprinkled edges. |
| Hands | Single throughout; larger and looser with the Dunciad and title page. |
| Indications of use | A very fine copy with very few correction and emendations. No marking-up of the poems at all – treated more like a sacred text, with reverence, perhaps. |
| Item formatting | Titles written somewhat larger than the rest of the text. Ruled horizontal line at the ends of each poem, which continues on same page. Line numbers to the poems. |
| Page layout | Paginated (by the compiler, up to p. 346). |
| Title page | Yes. |
