The history of the rise and fall of Count Hotspur, With that of his Brother-in-Law, Colonel Headstrong; wherein Are set forth, with all possible brevity, the Transactions of a long Tract of Years, and the Steps each of them took to climb up to the Summit of that Grandeur and Preferment, to which they rais'd themselves with great Difficulty; and from which, with as great Ease, through the Means of their Self-Will and Presumption, they were unexpectedly cast down. Faithfully Translated into English from an Etrurian Manuscript, lately found in the Great Duke of Tuscany's Library at Leghorn, for the Use of such as are, or would be conversant in the Affairs of State.
