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, amorous 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 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 of low spirits.
