PR3664 C4 1756: Singer-Mendenhall collection. Purchased for the Penn Libraries from Christopher Edwards in 2025. In early manuscript on front endpaper recto: Anne Pritchard from her affectionate father Richard Pritchard 28th March 1840. Read often the 139 psalm and ponder it in your heart. On front endpaper verso: who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies. Favour is deceitful and beauty is vain; but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates. On second front endpaper in early manuscript: Richd Pritchard 1817. On title page in early manuscript: Richd Pritchard. Bookseller's description laid in.
