Sobre este artículo
London: Printed by J G for Nathanael Webb and William Grantham at the signe of the Bear in St Paul's Church-yard, 1654 A good copy in contemporary full pigskin with blind ruled lines to boards. The pages have been cropped so the margins and gutter are quite small and the book is slightly bowed as if it has been held or kept in a pocket for ease of reference. It is certainly an entertaining read. Thomas Hall (circa 1610-1665) was a Presbyterian and, at the time of publication, was Pastor of Kingsnorton. His congregation dismissed him at the Restoration - and if his sermons resembled his writing, it is easy to imagine why. A small sample: 'Lastly, as no man may weare his owne haire excessively long, so he may not weare the long haire of another, be it of a man, a woman, or it may be of some harlot, who is now in Hell, lamenting there the abuse of that excrement'. The binding is sound, with a area of leather loss at the bottom of the spine and light general wear. Contents with title (blank verso); poems 5pp; errata 1p; text pp 1-95 (blank verso); Appendix title (blank verso); text 99-125 Finis; rear blank. Decorative head and tailpieces and initial capitals. Paper is clean with toning. The title page is very browned at the edges which are slightly ragged, and there is a small pasted piece of paper over one word on last page of poems. There is some mispagination, but the text is continuous: 58-56-60; 78-69-80; and 92-39-94.
