8vo in fours, pp. 43; disbound. Second edition, enlarged: first printed earlier the same year. 'Although called an impression, this is apparently a new edition, though standing type may have been used in it' (Foxon). In fact the type appears to have been reset throughout, though the printer's ornaments, on the title-page, first page of text, and the last page, are the same. The most striking feature of this new edition is that the lines are much more closely spaced, and as a result, although the number of pages in the two editions is approximately the same, the text has been significantly expanded with, as the title-page indicates, 'additional characters'. These occur for the most part on pp. 21-27, where are described for the first time 'a broken leather-selling Round-head', 'a famous brewer', 'an independent wizard', 'a Presbyterian shot-man', etc. Also new to this edition is a passage beginning at the foot of p. 41, and occupying almost all of p. 42. Foxon notes another edition very similar to this one, but printed on cheaper paper and undoubtedly a piracy; in that printing the catchword on p. 42 is 'Tho' as opposed to 'The' in the present edition. Several leaves loose at the beginning, old tape residue along the blank inner margin of the title-page, otherwise a good copy. A contemporary owner has noted Ward's authorship on the title, and has added the word 'Read'; he has also identified many of the 'characters' who appear in the text. Foxon W157.…

8vo in fours, pp. 44; a little dusty on title and last page, else a good copy; in recent marbled boards. First edition. A political poem, describing the triumphant return of Marlborough to London after the death of Queen Anne. Ward begins with a eulogy to the late Queen, but most of the poem is devoted to a burlesque account of the throng accompanying Marlborough. 'It provides us with some interesting sidelights on the state of the public mind and the journey itself. Ward himself had earlier sung the praises of the duke, but the antipathy of the Tory party to the captain-general had long since changed the heart of many an honest layman, and Ward now repeats the current rumors and prejudice' (Troyer). Foxon W155; Troyer, pp. 104-6 and 263; Bond, English Burlesque Poetry: 1700-1750, 38; Horn, Marlborough, 476.…

8vo in fours, pp. 64; recent half calf and marbled boards, red morocco label. First edition: an important Ned Ward title, written relatively late in his career, during his fifth year as the proprietor of the Bacchus Tavern. The poem is a bitter attack on the system of the closed or select vestry; the immediate inspiration was a dispute which had arisen in the parish of St. Botolph's. 'The nature of the attack, with its individualized portraits of the members of the vestry, made it a hazardous undertaking. Neither the author's name nor that of the printer appears on the title-page; nor is the parish under attack directly identified' (Troyer, who has a long discussion of the poem). Troyer ascribes this poem to Ward on internal evidence; he was not aware of its reissue in a later collected edition. Foxon W136; Troyer, pp. 178-188 and 260; Bond, English Burlesque Poetry, 1700-1750, 70. …
