Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. First Edition. London, Printed for Charles Harper, 1704 (the first two volumes) and 1701 (all first editions). Small octavo, three volumes, comprising the Old Testament (in two volumes): [viii], 351, [1] pages, and [1], 352-688, 697-710, [2] (publisher's catalogue) pages with 180 engravings in the te…xt plus 2 additional engraved title leaves and a frontispiece (collating complete, the hiatus in the pagination a numbering error); and the New Testament: [xii], 306, [14] ('Table of Contents, reducing the Figures to Historical Sequence' and publisher's catalogue) pages with 152 engravings in the text plus an additional engraved title and frontispiece. The general titles to both works are printed in red and black. Later half calf and marbled boards; spines tooled in gilt with contrasting lettering-pieces; covers slightly worn and sunned; small chip to the bottom margin of one leaf in the Old Testament (Tt3); a few unobtrusive marks, spots, and other minor signs of age and handling; an excellent set. A verse paraphrase of the Bible, illustrated with over 330 charming miniature engravings by John Sturt (1658-1730). The author, Samuel Wesley (1662-1735) was father of John Wesley (theologian) and Charles Wesley (hymn writer), the founders of Methodism. This version of the 'New Testament' was published first in 1701, and the 'Old Testament' followed in 1704 (in two volumes, with a cumulative title). A combined edition, more common than these first editions, was published in 1715. Provenance: Sir Samuel James Way (1836-1916), Chief Justice and Lieutenant Governor of South Australia, with his bookplate on all three front pastedowns. A slip of paper giving bibliographical details (almost certainly in his hand) is mounted on the front free endpaper of the third volume. It notes that one of the engravings is printed upside down, and (erroneously) that the engravings in this publication were printed from silver plates. John Sturt did produce a 'Book of Common Prayer' entirely engraved on silver plates in 1717, but we have found nothing to indicate the engravings in these volumes were produced in the same way. ESTC T75524 and N725. [3 items].
