About This Item
London: Printed by John Pindley for Samuel Macham, 1613 A fair copy of the extremely scarce 1st edition in newer half leather binding. Classed as 'fair' because 2 leaves are in facsimile and a further leaf has lost its side margin which may have had reference notes. Bishop Joseph Hall (1574-1656) held high positions in the English Church and was known for his scholarship and skills in debate. He became a Doctor of Divinity in 1612 and turned increasingly from writing to preaching. Henry, Prince of Wales, made Hall his Chaplain in 1608, and he was invited by James I to preach a sermon on the 19th anniversary of his accession. Contents: title (blank verso); dedication 4pp; text 109pp; Finis. The title page has an elaborate archway design and there are decorative headpieces and initial capitals. The binding is in near fine clean condition with title label to spine and marbled boards. The endpapers are contemporary with the binding. Text paper is lightly toned but generally clean. Page edges are a little fragile and some corner tips are turned over. There are a few small ink annotations - one on the title page (one scholarly - the rest not). Leaves 31/32 and 79/80 are in facsimile and 89/90 has lost the side edge. Please enquire if you would like to see additional images.
