A transcript by dr. Philip Bliss of a printed book by P. K.
A transcript by dr. Philip Bliss of a printed book by P. K. entitled The Surfeit. To A. B. C. (Lond. 1656), which is a survey of contemporary literature. From this copy no doubt dr. Bliss printed the text in his Reliquiæ Hearnianæ appendix ix (1857 and 1869).
Here he has added an index dated Aug. 1821, and a few literary notes. The author is known to be Philip Kynder, not, as Bliss supposed, Philip King.
