Published in 1909. Greek with Preface and some notes in English.  The Clouds (Ancient Greek: Nephelai) is a Greek comedy play written by the playwright Aristophanes. A lampooning of intellectual fashions in classical Athens, it was originally produced at the City Dionysia in 423 BC and was not as well received as the author had hoped, coming last of the three plays competing at the festival that year. It was revised between 420 and 417 BC and was thereafter circulated in manuscript form.

Good condition overall. Pages, cover - sound, and binding firm. Dewey label on spine, inscription on first page, a few pages have a small notation in margin.
