Dublin: Printed by Graisberry and Campbell, for John Archer, 1790. [4],[ii]-vii,[3],53,[4],58-120,[3],"134" [sic] 121-129, blank,135-185,[10],188- 311,[1]pp. 12mo. Disbound. Occasional marginal darkening and soiling, faint stamp of a defunct mercantile library, half-title has small chip at fore-edge, a few margins trimmed close at fore-edge, but generally a good copy. First Dublin printing of this popular collective edition of four works, each with its own sectional full-title. To all appearances, the garbling of the pagination in signature H is not a matter of incorrect folding of the signature, but rather of its initial printing, and in this respect this copy differs from the collation in ESTC. A London edition appeared the same year, along with two later American 18th century printings, and a 1793 Edinburgh printing. ESTC locates twelve copies of this Dublin edition. Not in Bradshaw. ESTC T118940.
