Miscellaneous poems

Description

The page on display, the reverse side of an engraved portrait of the author, Andrew Marvell, offers a wonderfully clear and visible example of the watermark embedded into the paper. Watermarks were designs woven into the mould used by papermakers to cast fresh pieces of paper. Watermarks can be used to identify the papermaker, the size of paper or even the date of its manufacture.
