It consists of 75 unnumbered leaves (counting f. 62 which is mostly torn out, leaving rather more than a stub, but omitting the leaf which would be conjugate with f. 11).  Of these, ff. 9r, 29r, 36r, 66r-70r, 73r and the versos of ff. 22, 28-29, 43, 45, 49, 51, 57-61, 64, 72 are BLANK.

The work consists of "The authors advertisement" (ff. 2-9), Parts 1-3 (ff. 10-47), and "Notes" (ff. 48-62).  On f. 35v is a pencil note:  "J E[agles].  Augt 4. 1831.  3d Part not read --".  Ll. 573-564 are repeated (with two additional lines) in the printed poem placed beneath Horne Tooke's bust (1810).
At the last page of the poem is a loose, unwatermarked fragment of paper, with writing torn off at the left, and "July 1831 del]" and 3 lines from "Dante Paradiso Canto 20. l. 60" and a note:  "This [is] a remarkable coincidence as I had not read Dante when I wrote these lines".
DATES:  The poem was begun in early spring (ll. 7-11); ll. 402-408 were "written August 1802"; l. 545 "was written in 1803"; it speaks of "the late Mr [Charles] Town[e]ley" (d. 3 Jan 1805) and says that Horne Tooke (d. 1812) "still lives" (l. 601).
It was transcribed in or after 1811 (the latest watermark date), and a Preface was added, saying that it was "commenced above twelve years back" (p. 8) and was originally entitled "Home".  It was looked over again in 1831, when Cumberland made a note about a parallel with Dante (July) and Eagles read it (August).

29 leaves (not counting 15 stubs in groups of 3 after ff. 6, 18, 21, 24, 27), removed from a larger volume but still stitched.  F. 13, pasted to f. 12, is evidently from an earlier part of the larger book.  Ff. 1-13 evidently had prints pasted to them, were then numbered on these leaves, and the prints were removed.  On ff. 16-27 (slightly smaller paper) are prints with printed numbers 4-6, 10-11, 17, 24, 13-15, 23, 19; the 12 engravings are numbered 1-12 in ink - the appendix is keyed to these numbers.  The print for p. 4 is inscribed in ink at the top:  "NB of these plates very few impressions were made."  At the foot in pencil is:  "NB These Plates are now in Mr Cumberlands possession--and make a part of the work".  They include 5 of Blake's plates.  On the verso of the leave inserted after p. 227 is:

Appendix.

The following plates selected from a small Quarto published by the author in 1795 [i.e., 1796], are from his own designs, composed on the system alluded to in the introduction to this work--in order to explain the principles of harmony of lines which governed the inventions of the ancients, and which he flattered himself to have detected on his first visit to Rome.  [In giving them here he does not by any means pretend to place them in the most distant competition with those that precede them, but merely del] ^These are only intended^ to shew how far the system of lines flowing into lines, once understood, is capable of adding power to so feeble a pencil as his own, to vary compositions without end. ...

Two tracings on unwatermarked paper are loosely inserted, traced from prints No. 11 (f. 236) and from a design not found here.
