Erstausgabe
8vo in fours, pp. 11; title page quite stained; disbound. First Edinburgh edition: originally printed in London earlier the same year.

Erstausgabe
8vo, pp. 68, 61-71 (text continuous despite pagination error); large engraved vignette on title page; disbound. First edition. A collection of essentially political poems, in praise of the talents and aims of the opponents of Robert Walpole. Robert Nugent (1709-1788) was a spirited Irishman: in Parliament he spoke with a rich brogue which bordered on farce, but he clearly had a good deal of charm, as depicted by his friend Goldsmith in his Haunch of Venison. Horace Walpole described one of his appearances in the House of Commons: 'The Irishman's style was floridly bombast; his impudence as great as if he had been honest. He affected unbounded good humour and it was unbounded but by much secret malice, which sometimes broke out in boisterous railing, oftener vented itself in still-born satires'. Once he had achieved wealth (through a judicious marriage), Nugent entered political life in London; but he also found an outlet in writing verse, and was befriended by Pope. Two of the poems in this small collection had already appeared separately, most notably An Ode to William Pulteney (1739), which describes his religious and political path from the darkness of repressive Catholicism to freedom-loving Protestantism, inspired by Richard Hooker, John Locke, Algernon Sidney and James Harrington. Both Gray and Walpole admired the poem, but they also doubted if it was actually his own work, and the suspicion was aired that he might have paid David Mallet to write it for him. As Horace Walpole observed, 'Nugent had lost the reputation of a great poet, by writing works of his own'. The two long verse epistles at the end are addressed to Lord Cornbury and to the Earl of Chesterfield, his political mentor. Foxon p. 521; O'Donoghue p. 337.
Verlag: London: printed for J. Walthoe over-against the Royal Exchange in Cornhill, 1737

Erstausgabe
Folio, pp. 19; a fine large copy, uncut, in later drab wrappers. First edition. Nugent's second published poem, published a matter of days before his marriage to Anne Craggs, some twelve years his senior, and the sister and co-heir of James Craggs, secretary of state. She was ugly, and Nugent made no pretence of being faithful to her, but she brought him a fortune, and valuable political connections, one of whom was Lord Chesterfield, who guided his early political career. This poem is manifestly influenced by the heroic couplets of Pope: Thro' the wild Maze of Life's stil-varying Plan, Bliss is alone th'important Task of Man: All else is trifling, whether grave or gay, A NEWTON's labours, or an Infant's play; Whether This vainly wastes th'unheeded Sun, Or Those more vainly mark the Course it run; And of the two, sure smaller is the Fault To err unthinking, than to err with Thought: But if, like them, we stil must Trifles use, Harmless at least, like theirs, be those we chuse. (p. 3) Foxon N336; ODonoghue p. 337-8; Sale, Richardson, 204; Rothschild 212.
Verlag: London: printed for J. Walthoe over-against the Royal Exchange in Cornhill, 1736
Anbieter: Christopher Edwards ABA ILAB, Henley-on-Thames, OXON, Vereinigtes Königreich
Folio, pp. 24; slight stain on title, else a fine copy; disbound. First edition: this was Nugent's first published poem. The addressee is identified in his Odes and Epistles (1739) as Henry Hyde, Viscount Cornbury (1710-1753), great-grandson of the Earl of Clarendon and a member of the so-called Young Patriot group. He was a close friend of both Pope and Swift, and a pallbearer at Gay's funeral. Foxon N346; O'Donoghue, p. 337; Sale, Richardson, 184 (the book was printed by Samuel Richardson). Uncommon: ESTC lists 12 copies; there was a reprint in Dublin the same year, where the poem was retitled An Essay on Justice (Foxon N347: just one copy known).
