1761Best.-Nr. 8806Boston: Edes and Gill 1761. Disbound. Good binding. Octavo. 35 1 pp. First edition. Removed from volume. Insect spotting to the half title and blank verso of the last leaf; early moisture staining to the contents. Contemporary owner name of Benjamin Parrott dated 1761 on the verso of the title page. Perhaps the same born in Lynn Essex County MA around 1740. Haven was a long-serving minister at the First Church in Dedham MA. Known as a capable orator he was frequently offered invitations to sermons and addresses as in this instance a sermon before the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company in Boston to date the oldest chartered military organization in North America. Haven preaches on temperance of spirit and self-control in the face of anger an interesting and salient subject for a military organization particularly in light of the ongoing French and Indian War. Haven uses as an exemplar the late George II and his "surprising firmness of mind in his close attention to and vigorous support of the present war; and that at a time when his flow of spirit might be supposed greatly abated by the infirmities of age; yet so susceptible was his heart of the softer passions that he always prefered sic peace to war when it could be obtained up terms honorable to his crown" p. 23. Rare in commerce. Evans 8878; Sabin 30884; ESTC W29372. Edes and Gill unknown

1912Best.-Nr. 17124Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company 1912. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good. Octavo; pp; 57 v colophon ad leaf; frontispiece of immigrants in a line with a cityscape background; quarter beige linen and brown paper covered boards title labels to spine and upper board;. On the front free fly leaf the author has penned a poem titled "Earth's Easter MCMXVI" and signed it below. That poem is as follows and has been published. EARTH has gone up from its Gethsemane And now on Golgotha is crucified; The spear is twisted in the tortured side; The thorny crown still works its cruelty. Hark! while the victim suffers on the tree There sound through starry spaces far and wide Such words as in the last despair are cried: "My God! my God! Thou hast forsaken me!" But when earth's members from the cross are drawn And all we love into the grave is gone This hope shall be a spark within the gloom: That in the glow of some stupendous dawn We may go forth to find where lilies bloom Two angels bright before an empty tomb.
