Full 19th century morocco spine gilt extra a.e.g. Extremities and joints rubbed but sound small chip from crown of spine title and half-title a bit soiled occasional marginal smudges but a good copy see collation note below. First edition. Attending the erratic pagination above this work was set-up in three sections with separate registers and a separate title for the third part. Like a number of copies reported in ESTC Online including copies at BL Cambridge UCLA Huntington Folger Harvard and several others this copy lacks the second part of the third section ie. pp.257-80 which Case treats as a separate supplement. An interesting miscellany; as one would expect from the title a large number of the poems are of a distinctly political or economic bent and include such works as "The South- Sea Whim" "An Excellent New Song called Credit Restored." "The London Election: A Ballad" and the like. There are references to Sacheverell et al as well as occasional prose pieces in a similar vein. ESTC T92757. CASE 280 1-4. Printed for A.
