"The publication A Tryal of Witches related to the 1662 Bury St. Edmunds witch trial first published in 1682 and was used by the magistrates at Salem when looking for a precedent in allowing spectral evidence. Since the jurist Sir Matthew Hale had permitted this evidence supported by the eminent philosopher physician and author Thomas Browne to be used in the Bury St Edmunds witch trial and the accusations against two Lowestoft women the colonial magistrates also accepted its validity and their trials proceeded."

A two-volume set of poetic miscellanies predominantly of the works of Matthew Prior 1664�1721 but with a curious amatory section to the end of volume two. Prior was a poet statesman and Tory ally to Robert Harley and the Scriblerians. His biographer states that his primary interests were 'women collecting friends a country estate and writing.' He was 'arguably the most important poet writing in English between the death of Dryden 1700 and the poetic majority of Pope in 1712'. He proved a continually popular entry in miscellanies a form of publication which gathered together various works sometimes on a theme. This set is a rather curious miscellany while dominated by Prior's works approximately the final third of volume 2 consists of 'Original Poems and Translations by Various Hands' - a deliberately vague title to a truly varied selection of poetry. A reader's interest may have been piqued by the first poem in the section Hildebrand Jacob's amatory verse on female auto-eroticism 'The Curious Maid' often misattributed to Prior which is accompanied by an engraved plate of a woman using a mirror to peek under her own skirts. What follows are a series of amatory bawdy and controversial works many laden with innuendo as in 'The Silent Flute: Or the Members Speech to their Soveraign' sic. while others use the tried-and-true guise of classical translation to depict scenes of 'heaving breasts and extended thighs'. Other poems in the collection are on less lurid but still interesting topics: Bedlam snuff marriage politics and the manners of the day. The title rather overstates the 'original' nature of the works: they mostly appear to be printed from earlier sources but their gathering together here nonetheless places these poems in new contexts. Miscellanies were an important venue for erotic amatory and controversial works indeed much of John Wilmot Earl of Rochester's poetry was first published in miscellanies by Edmund Curll. This set appears to be scarce with all the plates and represents an interesting combination of respectable mainstream and clandestine verse. ESTC T75658. ODNB. London; Printed for J. and R.

Page 1<br /> <br /> Rev. & Dear Sir<br /> <br /> After I had wrote my letter of Nov'r 1st in answer to yours of Aug't 12th which will probably accompany this I was told that it was not likely there wd. be an opportunity to Halifax till the Spring but as I am certified of an opportunity now presenting I will trouble you w'th another Letter to let you know how much I am at your service and that I have a feeling sympathizing heart for my distressed Brethren in America wishing most ardently that it was in my power to contribute anything to alleviate yours & others' sufferings and to reward that merit which most of our Clergy thank God are justly entitled to.<br /> But whatever Neglects we must here let us remember that our Reward is on high and let this animate us to Fidelity & Faithfulness and Perseverance therein under every Temptation & thro' every Trial.<br /> <br /> We have had Sir a long gloomy Day of Sufferings but for my part I cannot but think what I sincerely hope that the worst is past. I think I can discern some Vestiges or Symptoms of some fortunate Events for this Nation & some convincing tokens of Causes which will re-establish the British Monarchy & revive the Lustre of the British Government. In a word I think the Day is approaching & to my naked Eye it don't appear to be distant when Rebellion will fall like Lightning from Heaven.<br /> <br /> The Parliament Sir is lately convened. The-<br /> <br /> Page 2<br /> <br /> The first opening of it seems to be something ominous to the patriotic Faction; a Noble Lord & one of the chief speakers on the side of opposition in the House of Peers suddenly departed this Life at scarcely an Hour's warning two Days after the Parliament met. Mr. Ch. J. Fox whose oratorical abilities are well known was wounded in a duel & came near as I did learn to lose his Life about the same time. These Events together with the failure of all the Prophecies in the republican Papers - the Disasters of D'Estaing in his Fleets being wrecked & dispersed in a storm - The safety of the W. India Islands particularly Jamaica which was long ago announced to be taken - The inefficiency of the Spanish operations against Gibraltar - the great sickness & mortality which has carried off Thousands in the Camp of the Spaniards - the dissension between the Spaniards & French Admirals - the brave conduct of Sir Charles Hardy in maintaining the Sovereignty of the Channel & even riding triumphantly before Brest in spite of the Navy of France & Spain united - the Feuds & Animosities prevailing among the Rebels of America which betoken the Decline of their short lived Empire &c.<br /> <br /> These things Sir I say have greatly chagrined the Members of Opposition & have sunkly abated the matter whereupon they used to display their Eloquence in the Senate.<br /> <br /> You will excuse my enlarging here for having wrote you once before I did not intend a long Letter when I sat down but wd. only set you an Example if it may be allowed I who am professedly your Senior-<br /> <br /> Page 3<br /> <br /> -to do as I have done to miss no opportunity of writing to me which will afford much pleasure for I have few Correspondents these Days in America.<br /> <br /> Present my respectfull compliments to Mr. Weeks - he may depend upon it I shall not trouble him w'th writing to him; I wd. not have it too well known that I wrote to so many which I seldom have. I cannot think Mr. Th- & his Party will be so unwise as to create any trouble to him when they know that he is properly appointed Missionary of Annapolis & that the People must have him or none.<br /> <br /> Joseph Patten Esq. formerly an active man in that Mission and Representative for that County I think you must inasmuch as he once told me that he had often attended your Ministry. When you write let me know whether he be living & what part he takes in affairs publick & Parochial or write to him by Mr. Weeks.<br /> <br /> If you know Doctor Jeffries of Boston who lives at Halifax I think please to make my compliments to him & tell him that Capt. Hall Master of the Ship in which we went from London to Boston in 1769 is a Prisoner in France. He was taken in the Andromeda Man of War was next in Command to Capt. Boteler.<br /> <br /> No more but that I am yours with Sincerity and Esteem.<br /> <br /> W. Clark<br /> <br /> Rev'd Mr. Bailey -. 1402959. Special Collections - Upstairs. unknown
