Item description from seller

FIRST EDITION; leather-bound, hardcover, octavo (16 x 10 x 3 cm), pp. [16], 379, [1] errata, [2] advertisements. Signatures: A-2B8. English text. Bound in contemporary full calf. Condition: GOOD. Joints and hinges intact. Covers rubbed with some losses at the corners. Lacking front blank leaf, else complete. Textblock toned with a few spots and a couple of worm tracts in the margins.

Much of Horneck's literary output was devoted to the rules of life for Christians. In 1693, he became chaplain to William III and the first of a series of court chaplains and German preachers in the Savoy who played a distinguished role in British religious life for most of the eighteenth century.…
