pp. (ii), vi, (7)-118. Title vignette of Povey's coat-of-arms repeated on page 94. Contemporary sheepskin [despite the advertisement on the title-page], spine and corners worn and joints weak, front free end-papers cut out, the paste-downs with ms.

Clearly a considerable eccentric, Povey experimented with a number of commercial enterprises, including the coal trade [inventing an engine for clearing coal from ships], life and fire insurance [he set up the Sun Fire Office], he published the periodical 'General Remarks on Trade', proposed the half-penny carriage of letters within the Cities of London and Westminster and other schemes either of invention or commerce. His writings were numerous, contentious and vehicles for his quarrelsome and vain personality, though he claimed that he never wrote anything that did not '.tend to promote virtue and unity among men'.…
