Edition Notes

Verse of sixty-two lines: first line: Hail happy saint on thy immortal throne!

Advertised in the October 18, 1770, issue of the Massachusetts gazette

Text in two columns; relief cut (Reilly 1192) at head of title

An imperfect copy of this edition (wanting the imprint) held by the Historical Society of Pennsylvania is recorded by Bristol (Bristol B3297, Shipton & Mooney 42195). Bristol mistakenly records the imprint "Newport, S. Southwick [1770]," evidently based on the 8 p. edition printed by Southwick (Bristol B3298, Shipton & Mooney 42196)
