This Copy Inscribed By Ruskin (In His Hand) At Top Of Title Page : " 'Lizzie' With John Ruskin's Affectionate Regards.1869." Shortly After This Edition Was Published, A Distraught And Somewhat Incoherent Dante Gabrielle Rossetti Disinterred His Late Wife, Ruskin's Protege, Who Was Called "Lizzie" By Ruskin And Others Prior To Her Death, On Which Occasion This Book May Have Been Inscribed; But Perhaps Ruskin Was Then Well Acquainted With Another "Lizzie" Altogether.
