NOTES: There are 4 variants of this book published in 1733: T229756, T202849, T173801, T222869. The differences between these are unclear from ESTC. "Contains pieces from ’Miscellanies. The third volume.’, printed for Benj. Motte, 1732, but with a different titlepage. In 2 parts, each with separate pagination and register" (ESTC). T202849 (like T229756) seems to be a volume of additional poetry and prose, differing from the previous contents of 'Miscellanies. The last volume'. The 'Booksellers Advertisement' after tp claims that this volume 'contains the Remainder of those Miscellaneous Pieces, which were in some sort promised in the Preface to the former Volumes, or which have been written since. The Verses are paged separately, that they may be added to that Volume which wholly consists of Verse, and the Treatise of the Bathos placed in their stead in This'. Table of contents not present in ECCO copy. CONTENTS: 'Booksellers Advertisement' (2pp.); 'Narrative of Dr. Robert Norris' pp.[5]-24; satirical and political pamphlets and squibs pp. [1]-260, errata (1p.); miscellaneous poetry pp.[1]-92. Latin prose pp.[101]-112.
