Chappel Woodhouse, 1772 (Woodhouse apparently was Rector of Donington, in Shropshire). Engraved bookplate of George F. Northall. Hardbound. Scarce Third Edition. John Philips (1676-1709), English poet, was one of the few to write in blank / free verse in an age when the heroic couplet was the standard form. His 'Splendid Shilling' (1701, 1705) is a parody of Milton. 'Cyder' (1708), a utilitarian poem describing the cultivation of apples and the pressing of cider, is modeled after Virgil's 'Georgics'. This is a fine early collection of of Philips' major poems, works that, "written in revolt against the heroic couplet, between the death of Dryden and the appearance of Pope, occupy an important position in the history of English literature." The various editions of Philips's poetry are all nonce collections (with separate title pages, and often variant imprint details and dates). Foxon, p. 570 (incorporating p242 and p249); CBEL II 563.

190878p. + Portrait frontis. 8vo. Original cloth backed paper binding. Paper spine label worn. One of the earliest promoters of changing how one eats was Horace Fletcher (1849-1919) of Lawrence, MA. He evolved a system called Fletcherism, concerned chiefly with the slow mastication (chewing) of food. If you follow Fletcherism, you will chew each bite of food until it becomes a watery mass in your mout h before swallowing. This has two effects. First, if you chew a bite of food that long, you will be consuming your meal at a slower rate. Secondly, the reduction of this food to a watery mass means th at it will be less difficult to extract nutrients from the food. PHREN 2
