8. Swift, Jonathan, 1667-1745.
Travels into several remote nations of the world : in four parts / by Lemuel Gulliver, first a surgeon, and then a captain of several ships. To which are prefix'd, several copies of verses explanatory and commendatory ; never before printed. 2nd ed. (London : Printed for Benj. Motte, 1727) 2 v.
Apart from the frontispiece portrait of Gulliver and the maps, which were in the earliest editions, this is the first to have illustrations of events in the narrative. We see Gulliver on his fourth journey, to the land of the Houyhnhnms, the intelligent horses, and the Yahoos, degenerate humans.
