[ii], 22pp., 4to. With the half-title. An unusually fine and fresh copy, untrimmed. Disbound. First edition, a continuation of an earlier poem "Nature. . . Tending to shew, that every part in the moral world is, in a beautiful variety, regularly ordered and adjusted. . . ." The first part was published in 1747, and both are rare. Foxon, English Verse 1701-1750, F203. ESTC and OCLC record only the Bodleian, Cincinnati and Stanford copies of the present poem, suggesting that, e.g., the British Library, McMaster, Princeton, and Yale, all of which have the first part, are bereft of this second.
