8vo, pp viii, [4], 159, bound in contemporary quarter calf, joints rubbed with minor cracks, but a fine clean tight copy, FIRST EDITION, a translation from the Latin of Parr published the previous in an obscure publication of Bellenden, edited by Benry Homer. Seen by Parr as an opportunity to attack Pitt in intellectual terms, it was translated without authorisation to gain a wider political currency. and with dedications to Burke and his circle. As such it forms a curious adjunct to Parr's political writings.
