Tom Gay's Comical jester, or The wit's merry medley, refin'd; being a new and most beautiful collection of brilliant jests, funny joaks, merry stories, Humorous Adventures, Pleasant Tales, Strange Frolics, Smart Repartees, Witty Quibbles, Irish-Bulls, &c. &c. To which is added, A curious Collection of New Conundrums, Rebusses and Riddles, sharp Epigrams, droll Epitaphs, amorous Poems, Songs, Fables, &c. The whole being entirely freed from that Dulness which infests most other Jest-Books and is calculated to kill Care, banish Sorrow, promote Mirth, crack the Sides, chear the Heart, and prove an everlasting Cordial for Low Spirits.
