Octavo 19th century disbound. 16pp. This issue with the the second line of imprint starting under the N of "and" in the first line of imprint. There is also an issue with the line starting under the R of "Printed" Initially attributed to Matthew Prior who denied he was the author it is also sometimes attributed to Daniel Defoe [1661 -1731] but it is in any case another of Hills' pirated editions from a first edition of 1704. It was Shippen's first publication and attracted much attention and was published in a pirated edition within days of the first edition of 1704. This second printing, also a counterfeit is squeezed into 16 pages instead of the 20 of the original in that th type font from the top of page 13 to the end on page 16 is noticeably smaller as is the line spacing.
