Erstausgabe
Folio, pp. [ii], 5-15; in modern red half morocco, spine lettered in gilt. First edition, second issue. This poem was first published anonymously the previous year as The Folly of Industry, or the Busy Man expos'd, by Ann Baldwin of Warwick Lane. In this reissue, there is a new title page with a different title, the author is named, and the (rather uninformative) preface is cancelled: presumably the poem had attracted little attention as an anonymous work and Benjamin Bragg bought up the sheets on the understanding that he could publish it as Wycherley's work. The theme of the poem is that in the course of making money, the life of a man of business is consumed with anxiety, whilst supposedly pursuing greater leisure: So Bus'ness is the Bane of active Life, Which shou'd procure our Ease, maintains our Strife; Which wears out Life, whilst Life it shou'd sustain, Till our Death, by our Livelihood, we gain. (p. 6) It was at about this time that the young Alexander Pope, then a mere seventeen years old, came to know Wycherley, now sixty-four, but there is no suggestion that Pope had anything to do with this publication, even though it was understood to be one of Pope's tasks to sort through his literary work and make it publishable. This 'second edition' appears to be an attempt to dispose of unsold sheets perhaps it had attracted little attention without Wycherley's name on the title page; but meanwhile it had been included (under this new title) in his collected poems of 1704, a volume which was something of an embarrassing failure. Nevertheless, this is the authorised reissue of the first edition of a late work by one of the age's greatest dramatists. Foxon W575. Both issues of this poem are rare. Of the first, ESTC lists six copies (British Library; Huntington, Harvard (2 copies), Clark and Newbery), to which Foxon adds a copy at Yale. This reissue is rarer still: just three copies have been located, at Longleat, Dr Williams's Library, and Harvard. Provenance: John Brett-Smith.
