The rare first edition (‘printed for the author’) of a lengthy devotional poem on the glories of Jerusalem by Thomas Quin, presumably the same author of several contemporary Latin grammars and sometime Master of the Classical and Commercial Academy, Maldon, Essex. A second, corrected edition appeared in 1827.
