Broadside 36 x 12 cm woodcut headpiece. Nine four-line stanzas. Attractive oval stamp in the lower margin of Peter Henry Chymist. A typical doggerel poem and somewhat bawdy written in the form of a slip ballad which begins "You young men all both far and near / Listen a while and you shall hear / Take care you're not drawn in a snare / By the girls that do love brandy / Wack Fla la &c." And in the fourth stanza: "'Tis on your backs girls you must lie / Pray which of you would this deny / A dish of tea or brandy." Etc. <br/><br/> [London, 1795?] unknown books

Still generally a good volume. 2344double-spread map; 4362 i.e. 366 361-444 2 3- 135 7 leaves; 1114 i.e. 1137pp. 1 vols. Small folio. A characteristic gathering of the three texts the Bible being the Geneva-Tonson-Junius version in an edition that is a very close reprint of Barker's 1607 edition. The general engraved title is undated and the sectional full title-page for the NT is dated 1611 but the printer's colophon at the end is dated 1612. The text of the Apocrypha is included as a part of the contiguous whole. The edition of the Genealogies which is here bound prior to the Bible is one of the several folio printings attributed to Beale that are partially sorted as to minute variants in STC and ESTC; however this example does not conform to the variants in ESTC in regard to the line-breaks in the side note on A1V. The present edition of the Sternhold and Hopkins Psalms includes some music settings. This is among the last folio London printings of the Geneva text the standard text of 16th century Protestantism and the text referenced by Shakespeare Donne Bunyan et al. The first edition of the NT was printed in Geneva in 1557 and was first printed in England in 1575-6. ESTC S1189; S101955; and S122901. Herbert 312.
