Paperback. Condition: Fine. (UK) Presumed 1st of this facsmile edition, No markings, Fine. Blue and white wraps, paginated in sections according to the facsimile books, about 200 pages. The Works of the Right Honourable The Earls of Rochester and Roscommon, the third edition, London: E. Curll, 1709; Miscellaneous works of John late Earl of Rochester; Miscellaneous Works by the Right Honourable The Earl of Roscommon, London: MDCCIX. These are early 18th century poems and dramatic pieces. John Wilmot was an English poet and courtier of King Charles II's Restoration court. The Restoration reacted against the "spiritual authoritarianism" of the Puritan era. Rochester embodied this new era, and he became as well known for his rakish lifestyle as his poetry, although the two were often interlinked. I believe the Prologue to Pompey is the work of the Fourth Earl of Roscommon, Wentworth Dillon. (2.5 JM HOZ 401/4 Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾". Seller Inventory # 04104
