That's brilliant! Thank you! I will follow up with this and see where it takes me! The crux of it really is if contemporary readers ever saw Daphnaïda as any more than a 'coda' to Complaints.

From the catalogue I can't see that this is so, and I haven't looked at the book(s) myself; but the two separate entries in the catalogue have contiguous call numbers (69576 and 69577) and the same provenance, so it's quite possible they are bound together. I imagine others will know of this or other examples.
