FOUR IMPORTANT MSS. BY VERLAINE.

470. VERLAINE (PAUL). ORIGINAL AUTOGRAPH MANUSCRIPT, signed in several places of a portion of "Bonheur," 15 pp. in all, comprising nearly 400 lines. Inlaid, and bound in one volume, 4to, full crimson levant morocco, gilt, doublures of blue levant morocco, white moire silk flys, gilt top.

Most of these poems were written at the Hospitals Broussais, Vincennes and Cichin. They comprise one-third of the volume entitled "Bonheur' which, according to Verlaine's biographer is one of the last two works of his best period.

These pieces comprise more than half of the volume entitled "Paralellment, ," and were mainly written at the Hospitals Broussais and Vincennes.
