Comments:

PLATES: Portrait of Jonathan Swift engraved by George Vertue facing title page of 'An Essay on Gibing'. Engraving by Hulsbergh facing p.18 of the last section, 'Poems on several occasions'. Bookplate of one 'Miss Henniker'. PAGINATION: In 'Court Poems' sig. 'A2' appears to be a mistake for 'B2' (B3 follows).
