181055963Portsmouth N.H.: printed at the Oracle Office 1810. First edition 12mo pp. xi 2 134-148; bound without Physiognomy a Poem by Joseph Bartlett Portsmouth: printed by William Treadwell 1810 pp. 19 1; contemporary calf-backed marbled boards; last gathering extended; good and sound. It has been asumed by some including me that Physiognomy a Poem was issued with Aphorisms. The contemporary binding on this copy with no evidence of any removal belies that assumption. The book is dedicated "To all my enemies . I now most humbly supplicate that you would take this little volume into your malignant keeping I pray you to oppose it do all you can to destroy it . don't fear my anger or my vengeance be inattentive to my mortification and be regardless of my distress: I know your goodness your friendship and attachment and rest assured that your most vigorous opposition and your most virulent slander will be duly appreciated and receive the proper acknowledgment."
