Riassunto

EARLY ENGLISH WIT, POETRY & SATIRE. Imagine holding history in your hands. Now you can. Digitally preserved and previously accessible only through libraries as Early English Books Online, this rare material is now available in single print editions. Thousands of books written between 1475 and 1700 can be delivered to your doorstep in individual volumes of high quality historical reproductions. The power of literary device was never more in its prime than during this period of history, where a wide array of political and religious satire mocked the status quo and poetry called humankind to transcend the rigors of daily life through love, God or principle. This series comments on historical patterns of the human condition that are still visible today.

By Mary Evelyn.
The preface was probably written by John Evelyn, the author's father.
Partly in verse.
"The fop-dictionary" has separate dated title page; pagination and register are continuous.
Apparently there are two editions with "second edition" on the title page. In each edition quire A is in the same setting of type, but quires B-D have been reset. In this edition the separate dated title page line 2 has a semi-colon following "fop-dictionary" and the "C" of signature-mark "C2" is partly under the "n" and "d" of "understood".
