The editor ascribes the authorship of the pamphlets to Dean Swift. ; Several editions of each of these five tracts separately appeared in 1712; they were reprinted, divided into two parts, in vol. II of Pope's and Swift's Miscellanies (1727) under title: Law is a bottomless pit, or The history of John Bull. Later editions have followed this arrangement and since that time the work has usually been called by its second title: The history of John Bull. cf.p.7. ; Proefschrift--Amsterdam. ; Bibliography: p.249-250. ; With reproductions of original title-pages: Law is a bottomless-pit.London, J.
