I've attached my catalogue entry for the copy I own, which Twain read in the Langdon family library. There might be other copies in the Langdon family library books preserved at Elmira, but I hope this helps answer your question.

This is in relation to my interest in the parallels between Richard Burton and Mark Twain. I know Twain did not read Burton's translation. I doubt that it left England, where it was considered by some to be pornographic. >
