Tom gay's comical Jester, or The wit's merry medley; Being a new and most beautiful collection of brilliant jests, funny jokes, merry stories, humorous adventures, pleasant tales, 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 infects most other jest books-and is calculated to kill care, banish sorrow, promote mirth, crack the sides, choar the heart, and prove an everlasting gordial for low spirits.
