Poor Robin 1750. An almanack according both to the old and new fashion. Or : An ephemeris both in jest and earnest, of the latest edition; wherein the reader may observe (especially if he use a pair of understanding spectacles) many useful and very remarkable things worthy the observation not of himself only, but also of all attentive by-standers. Containing a twofold calendar. Viz. The good, old, true, plain, honest English account, together with the new-fangled, minute-splitting (or rather month-splitting) whimsey-heads, paper-scull'd, slender-witted, pretendrical, perkinical, popish account; embellished with a team of saints and sinners, composed of 365 links, at least twelve months long. Being the second after bissextile or leap-year. Written by Poor Robin, knight of the Burnt-Island; a well-wisher to the mathematicks.
