The Essays of a Prentise, in the Divine Art of Poesie. Edinburgh. 1885

This collection features two significant works: "The Essays of a Prentise, in the Divine Art of Poesie," which explores the craft of poetry, and "A Counterblaste to Tobacco," a strong critique of tobacco use. Edited by Edward Arber, this reprint preserves the original text from 1869, offering readers insight into early 17th-century attitudes toward tobacco and the artistic expression of poetry. The book serves as a valuable resource for those interested in literary history and cultural commentary.
