Hardcover. Zustand: Fair. First edition. Full brown leather cover, with five raised bands to spine. 158 x 207 x 40mm. 588pp. Includes list of Errata on final page. Cover shows many stains, marks and minor scuffs, but nevertheless remains strong overall, with hinges still sound; the severest damage is at bottom of spine, where a…piece of leather, c. 1.5cm x 1.5cm, is almost detached; title-labels are missing from spine; no leaves before half-title page, where there is a previous owner name (J. F. Herschell); internal pages are clean, bright and unmarked (remarkably so, considering they are more than 300 years old!); binding remains strong throughout. Overall, a well-preserved first edition copy - very scarce. NB: An extra shipping charge may be requested for heavier or more valuable items. All our 'Seller Images' show the actual item you will receive.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. No Jacket. Title: The Parable of the Pilgrim: Written to a Friend Author: Symon Patrick, D.D. (Dean of Peterborough; later Bishop of Ely) Edition: Sixth Edition, Corrected Publisher: Richard Chiswell, at the Rose and Crown in St Paul's Church-Yard Place/Date: London, MDCLXXXVII (1687) Imprimatur: "Carol…us Alston, R. P. D. Hen. Episc. Lond. a Sacris Domesticis" — licensed under Henry Compton, Bishop of London Binding: Modern full calf over boards, red gilt spine label Pagination: [16], 527 pp. (collated complete) Format: 8vo 📝 Description A complete example of the 1687 sixth edition of Symon Patrick's influential Anglican devotional allegory The Parable of the Pilgrim, printed for Richard Chiswell, one of the foremost London booksellers of the late Stuart period. This copy retains the entire original 17th-century text block, but has been professionally rebound in modern full calf (light tan) over boards, with a red morocco and gilt title label to the spine. The binding is clean, tight, and unworn, providing a durable preservation covering for the original leaves. Pages show age-toning and mild marginal wear consistent with a 336-year-old book, but the text remains clear and fully legible throughout. No missing leaves; collated complete at 527 pages. The imprimatur page bears the authority of Charles Alston, domestic chaplain to Bishop Henry Compton — confirming this as an officially licensed devotional work printed during the Restoration era. Condition: Text block original and complete Modern full-calf binding in excellent condition Pages toned, occasional spots, but no major stains or tears No ownership inscriptions detected A sound and presentable example of this important 17th-century theological work.

4to: 1 p. Very good on the first leaf of a bifolium. A third quarto leaf carries the address, in Dampier's hand, with his franking signature 'free | T. Rochester.' Also the oval seal, c.3 cm high, a clear impression in red wax. 24 lines of text. Interesting letter. Dampier begins by thanking Adams for 'your Congratulations to me… on my Promotion to the See of Rochester. It is a Situation particularly agreeable to me, as, besides other Circumstances, it does not entirely remove me from my Kentish friends or from my Northern Friends.' Adams is suffering from Gout, and Dampier commiserates: 'I know how to feel for you'. As a result Adams has 'come to a Resolution of giving up the Business of the Trust. it was so safe in your Hands, on whose Zeal & Integrity, Experience & Abilities I have such Confidence, that I cannot but think myself under a personal obligation to you for having continued it so long.' Dampiers promotion 'will necessarily withdraw me from a constant Residence at Durham', but he will continue to pay 'such attention to the Concerns of the Trust as my Brethren may think proper to committ to me. I cannot from some late occurrences flatter myself that this will be much'. He would be 'glad if I could as easily part with my Connexion with the Trust as you have with yours; This would be a great Relief to me, but I cannot look to it.' He promises that he 'will never pass through Alnwick to the Castle without dining with you.' In 1776 Dampier succeeded his father as master of Sherburn Hospital, near Durham. Between 1778 and 1808 he was a prebendary of Durham Cathedral.
