Sobre este artículo
London: Printed by R. Norton, for E. Pawlet, at the sign of the Bible in Chancery-Lane, near Fleetstreet, 1713. 12mo, pp. [26], 472, [2 index], [4, 'A Table of Contents...'], [2, advert]. + engraved frontis, plus an additional engraved title page, and a final advertisement leaf. Lacking the additional title page mentioned in ESCT T221014. Binding repaired: later sturdy calf spine and corner reinforcements, stitched (through the board), plus vertically to spine, over darker leather boards; crude but effective. Boards considerably worn, large bald patches. Numerous POIs and inscriptions ("My book" plus date) to feps and verso of title page, including the hands of Thomas and Robert Warehem/ Wareham and George Young, suggesting use until at least 1788. Prelims loose, front hinge cracked, creasing, some staining, some worming to top margins, headlines occasionally crossed. Good A superbly ugly and well-used copy of Richard Allestree's Protestant devotional, which prescribes various devotional exercises for a healthy Christian life.
