First edition, the comic result of a trip to France with Samuel Rogers, ‘a set of verse epistles attributed to writers ranging from a servile creature of the tories to a passionate champion of Ireland, with some light relief from Miss Biddy Fudge, a young lady of fashion’ (ODNB). It was very successful, but could not save him from financial difficulties, which led to a further period abroad to avoid arrest.

At the end are a few other occasional verses.
