Notes
Due to a printing error, p. 15 and its text comes before p. 14, being printed on the verso of the same leaf with p. 13.
In this edition, "Newly composed" in the title is in lower case, with "N" in capital.
Research by David Stoker suggests a general publication date range spanning from the 1770s to the 1780s for chapbooks bearing the "Aldermary Churchyard" and "Aldermary Churchyard, Bow Lane" imprints, with those bearing the street address "No. 4 Aldermary Churchyard" probably printed sometime after the mid 1770s.
