Blake originally drew and painted sixteen illustrations for Milton's On the Morning of Christ's Nativity early in the nineteenth century.

In the publisher's original quarter cloth binding, with paper covered boards. Externally, very smart, with just some light shelf wear and bumping to the extremities. Internally, firmly bound. A few light spots to the pages, which are otherwise bright and clean.
