minstrel: Pills to Purge Melancholy - full text?

[Jennifer Doherty]

Hello All,

Speaking of the Pills... The last time I went looking for them I kept coming 
up with several editions of the same book, each containing different songs.  
Anyone know what the earliest edition was and/or how many editions there 
were??  Just curious.  Thanks.

Anna

Greetings to the list!

So many wonderfully bawdy (if admittedly post-period)
songs come from "Pills to Purge Melancholy,"  I
thought it would behoove me to find a copy of the full
text of the manuscript.  A cursory search of the
online book dealers did not reveal anything useful
(and in fact turned up references to Prozac - a pill
to purge melancholy if there ever was one,
apparently).

I thought it might perhaps be contained in a reference
tome with a bland or unrevealing title like "Songs of
the 18th Century" or somesuch.  Does anyone have a
good reference for the Pills?

Thanks,
Teleri
