| General note | "The works of Mrs. Steele were published in England at different times. Two volumes, under the title of 'Poems on subjects chiefly devotional, by Theodosia,' appeared in the year 1760, during the life of the author; a third volume, entitled 'Miscellaneous pieces in prose and verse,' was published in 1780, after her decease, by Rev, Caleb Evans of Bristol, accompanied with a new impression of the preceding volumes. The editor of the posthumous pieces has prefixed to his volume a notice of the life of the author, which in this edition should more properly precede the whole work, and which we of course have transposed."--v. 1, p. [1]. |
| General note | "I shall only add, that ... the profits which may arise from this edition are appropriated by her surviving relatives, to the use of the Bristol Education Society."--Advertisement of the English edition, p. 8. Signed: Caleb Evans. Bristol, (England) May 12, 1780. |
