First edition

London: printed for Richard Chiswell, 1682. First edition, 4to, pp. 2 , 28; modern gray paper-covered boards a little splayed and the text trimmed a little close though never affecting text but still a very good copy. Political intrigue and romantic rivalry both cavort through the final confessions of Stern and Borosky, convicted of murdering parliament member Thynn or Thynne, 1648-1684 on the command of Count Konigsmark, a former wooer of Thynn's wife.
