John Sparks, 1699, First Edition; small octavo, full leather, rebound by Sangorski & Sutcliffe, the boards overlaid with the original leather covering; light browning affects much of the text to varying degrees. Worming at foot of last few leaves and a damaged corner to pp.341/2. Collated as complete; page 349 shows pagination error “493”. A remarkable collection both erotic and satirical, and at times, scurrilous! Wing B5051/52.
