London: Not Stated 1687. First edition. Paperback. Very Good Indeed. 8" by 6". None. The first edition of this very scarce satire on John Dryden written contemporaneously to his success. Scarce - last seen at auction in 1981. Pages 12 20 are misnumbered as called for. ESTC no: R36782 WING: R1206 Collated complete with the final blank. With the signatures A4 B2 C-E4. This work is a satire on John Dryden with extracts from his poems. The title references his allegorical poem 'The Hind and the Panther' which is regarded as one of his most controversial. Dryden had converted to Catholicism around the same time as the Catholic monarch James II's accession to the throne in 1685. Many Protestant writers were disgusted by this particularly as previous poems by Dryden included praise towards Puritan Protectorate Oliver Cromwell. Dryden's 'The Hind and the Panther' came from Dryden's conversion and he describes the different religious denominations as animals making clear his new stance as a Catholic. This 'Trage-Comedy' is a response to Dryden's 'The Hind and the Panther' and his revolt against his previous beliefs. The introduction provides a synopsis of Dryden's poem and states that for writing it Dryden deserves to be 'reckon'd in the number of the Heathen Gods'. A very scarce work which provides context to the political and social climate of the seventeenth century. Disbound as called for. Externally smart with just a few light spots to the front and rear wraps. Internally firmly bound. To A2 there is a small ring mark at the bottom of the page not affecting the text.
