The Poetical Works Of Thomas Moore
Published by Yardley & Handscomb: London c1905 (undated)

"Thomas Moore (28 May 1779 - 25 February 1852), also known as Tom Moore, was an Irish writer, poet, and lyricist celebrated for his Irish Melodies. His setting of English-language verse to old Irish tunes marked the transition in popular Irish culture from Irish to English. Politically, Moore was recognised in England as a press, or "squib", writer for the aristocratic Whigs; in Ireland he was accounted a Catholic patriot."
