Roger Bacon Conducting Experiment
The wonderful history of the celebrated Friar Bacon: who studies the magic art, and saves a gentleman from the Devil, to whom he had sold his soul and body: he erects a wonderful brazen head, which was to enable him to secure all England from invasion, it speaks, but loses its virtue by his servant's folly: by his help France is conquered: he makes three wicked thieves, who tried to rob him, dance a hornpipe over hedges into ditches, against their wills: with many curious particulars. Printed by W. Lewis for T. & J. Allman, 1829.
