|Value ? - ?? = Most of the 'practical romantic advice' contained within is bunk, but it is instructive to identify how and why exactly it is bunk. Plus it comes with several very detailed and very ''artistic'' colour lithographs.
 
|Value ?? - ??? = The contents are a collection of short poems of anonymous authorship [...] They seem to be ordered by intensity – starting with gentle poems about longing and courting, and ending with material that would make the most seasoned sybarite blush.
