Small 4to, pp. [vi], 24; title page quite badly abraded, and repaired on the verso, with loss of a few letters only the sense entirely recoverable, and the rest of the pamphlet in good order; disbound. First edition. A small group of satirical poems on the early writings of John Asgill, whose quaint way of expressing himself later attracted the admiration of Coleridge. Coleridge described Asgill's language as 'genuine Saxon English', and likened his use of irony to that of Defoe and Swift, though he was not certain that the effect was intentional. In 1698 Asgill had published a pamphlet advocating the establishment of a land registry, which attracted a certain amount of attention, and the following year he was elected a member of the House of Commons for Bramber in Sussex. In 1700 he gained notoriety for a highly eccentric theological treatise called An Argument proving. that Man may be Translated, which elicited both laughter and outrage. 'Within days of the book's publication, Asgill left for Ireland to provide legal services to people affected by the Act of Resumption (1699), which established a commission to examine the disposal of Irish lands forfeited since 1688. Adept in this work, he amassed nearly £10,000' (ODNB). The title-poem here deals specifically with Asgill's Argument, and speculates in a humorous way about Asgill's own afterlife. The rest of the pamphlet consists of twelve short poems, including 'Upon Mr. Asgill's Essays on Faith and a Registry', 'To Mr. Asgill, on his potter', 'Banter upon banter', and 'The retort given Mr. Asgill, by a Lady'. This copy, like that at the Royal Irish Academy in Dublin, has a contemporary manuscript attribution to Dr John Stearne (1660-1745). Stearne was installed, at about the time this pamphlet was printed, as chancellor of St. Patrick's Cathedral; he soon became a good friend of the younger Jonathan Swift. Foxon S735.…
