About this Item
[8], 143pp, [1]. With and engraved frontispiece and a final page of publisher's advertisements. A variant of the second edition with the date in the imprint. Contemporary gilt-ruled sheep. Extremities marked and rubbed, joints split. Frontispiece browned A revised and enlarged edition, printed in the same year as the first, of a collection of devotional tales â designed for the benefit of the rising generationâ by Welsh Baptist minister John Evans (1767-1827). The founder of a seminary at Islington, Evans taught for in excess of thirty years and published some forty sermons, tracts, and school books. This second edition, in addition to revisions of the three primary pieces (â The Studentâ s Dreamâ , â The Vision of Female Excellenceâ , and â The Painterâ s Panegyristâ ), adds two poetical productions â on account of their inculcating sentiments similar to the prose pieces to which they are annexedâ . All editions are scarce, with this second (variant) edition being no exception. ESTC locates copies at only two locations (Cambridge and Oxford). ESTC T187041. Size: 8vo. Seller Inventory # AQ21133
