40pp; small 4to. A few marginal ink strokes, emphasising sections of text. Disbound. ESTC R17788. A Scottish exile, deeply implicated in the Rye House Plot and the Monmouth Rebellion, Ferguson fled to the Netherlands after the Battle of Sedgmoor, returning with William of Orange in 1688. '[Ferguson] belonged to the class whose office it is to render in troubled times to exasperated parties those services from which honest men shrink in disgust and prudent men in fear, the class of fanatical knaves. Violent, malignant, regardless of truth, insensible to shame, insatiable of notoriety, delighting in intrigue, in tumult, in mischief for its own sake, he toiled during many years in the darkest mines of faction. He lived among libellers and false witnesses. He was the keeper of a secret purse from which agents too vile to be acknowledged received hire, and the director of a secret press whence pamphlets, bearing no name, were daily issued.' (From T.B. Macaulay's History of England.).
