About This Item
London: James Cawthorn, [1809].. vi,54pp. 12mo. Extracted from nonce pamphlet volume. Lacking the half-title, sewing separated, some external light soiling, otherwise a very good, crisp copy. First edition, Randolph's second "issue." The paper is watermarked 1805 (leaf 1/2 for instance), but 'Dispatch' appears in 5:7 (a stop-press correction not necessarily relating to sequence of issue). The remainder of the typographical features indicative of the two issues of the first edition cited by Randolph also appear. One thousand copies were printed, and numerous later editions and spurious reprints appeared. Wise's assertions about the points of "issue" involving the Preface have been discredited. HAYWARD 219. WISE I,19-23. TINKER 510. RANDOLPH, p.14.
