Manchester: Printed by A. Swindells, Hanging Bridge, 1824 Book. Good. Unbound. 16; 16 pages. Two unbound chapbooks as issued. Undated, library catalogues at Manchester University and National Library of Scotland dated them to 1825? - howver as these have the name Rolf and the year 1824 written on the title pages, I am going with that as the date of publication. The chapbooks are unsewn and page edges untrimmed, dusty at the edges and the outer pages are soiled..
