Folio, pp. 20; disbound. First edition. A collection of witty couplets, containing observations on London life and society. Each epigram has a title, and the following are typical: 'On a Fop', 'On a Wicked Fellow', 'The Newsmonger and Politician', 'The Lady's Journal', 'What is a Wit?' There are 137 epigrams in all. As is pointed out by Foxon (p. 239), who treats this as a 'book' of poems, these are obviously all by the same person.
