The British phœnix : or, the gentleman and lady's polite literary entertainer. Consisting of a great variety of all such scarce and valuable literary amusements, as have either long since been buried in Oblivion, and out of Print; or such others, at least, as are not to be purchased singly. Amongst which will be interspersed, Some of the most shining Essays, that have hitherto appeared in the World; together with some select detached Pieces, in Prose and Verse, never before published, but artfully filched from the Closets of the Curious. By Mercurius Typographicus, alias, the printer's devil.
