Poems and Ballads
Algernon Charles Swinburne · Edward Moxon & Co., withdrawn; reissued the same year by John Camden Hotten (London) · 1866
The Moxon imprint of April 1866 has technical priority as the first published state, but genuine Moxon-imprint copies are very uncommon; the Hotten reissue of the same year, using the same sheets under a cancel title leaf, is the state most often described in the trade as "first edition."
