Dealer Notes

This is the third, enlarged edition of Blount’s essays, which appeared in the year of his death, and so the final and best form of his essays. The dedication reads “Reader, I here present you with the Third Impression of my ESSAYS; to which there is now added a Third Part. I shall only tell you that they are intended purely for your Service, and therefore if they can afford you either Instruction or Diversion, I am satisfied”. ESTC R19307.
