The History of Capt. Thomas Parismas, [electronic resource] : containing a particular account of the cruel and barbarous treatment of a young lady, who was the wife of Mr. James Negotio, an English merchant, in the East-Indies. The history of this innocent and unfortunate lady, is allowed by al those who have perused it, to be one of the most striking accounts that ever appeared in print, and would almost excite tears of blood, (even from the eyes of a Nero,) unless every avenue of compassion was shut up. To which is added, the remarkable and entertaining story of Alcander and Rosilla.
