Revived. The delicate jester; or Wit and humour without ribaldry; Containing a great variety of entertaining tables, allegories, anecdotes, repartees, of persons remarkable for wit and understanding; intermixed with poems, songs, epigrams, epitaphs; chiefly original for this little work. The whole put together so as not to offend the ears of chastify, or Infringe on the rules of morality, decency and good manners, while they lose nothing of their force and brilliancy; which indisputably renders this the only book of the kind yet published, worthy the sanction of sober families, who cannot be too watchful over the private amusements of their children.
