8vo, pp. 19; with an engraved frontispiece; disbound. First Edinburgh edition: a pirated printing, with a false imprint. Iolo Williams was aware of this octavo edition, and describes it as follows: 'It is a cheap-looking production, having the frontispiece somewhat crudely engraved in reverse, without Van der Gucht's signature, and can have no pretensions to being the first edition'. Bibliographers at that period, however, were wholly unaware of the great number of Edinburgh reprints in the first half of the 18th century which falsely maintained the appearance of a London origin; as Foxon points out, copies of this octavo are found bound up with other identifiable Edinburgh piracies. There are, of course, no Gilliver advertisements at the end. The fact that the phrase 'eight parts of speech' is printed in roman rather than italics may indicate that this piracy was set from a copy of the first edition. Foxon B399. Artikel-Nr. 23340
