INSTRUCTIONS FOR A RIGHT COMFORTING AFFLICTED CONSCIENCES

London, T.H [for Thomas Weaver] [1635]/1631 . Octavo tan roan spined cloth on five raised bands [front cover nearly loose/head&foot of spine chipped/corners quite worn] titlepage +[24p=dedication] +595pp + [3p=blanks] +[4p=table of Contents] Cover very loose. Titleapge damaged lacking part of outer lower third but author title & "second edition" plus part of the imprint is present. Missing text has been completed by previous owner. The date for a second edition is 1635, the first 1631. The book is somewhat edge tanned,a bit dusty and has several finger pinters put into the margin by a previous owner. Inscription by John Halford dated 1688. Three margins have doodles but not touching text though one has slight offset of doodle to the side notes. Despite a few corner creases the paper is untorn and supple. *At Oxford Bolton was up at Lincoln and Brasenose and then became Rector at Broughton Northampton, his lecture in Kettering contributed this work. He seems to have been well thought of by his contemporaries so that Anthony A'Wood speaks of him as a most religious and worthy learned puritan. This work continued in regular print until 1753 and then was republished in the 19th century. Bolton focuses on how a good puritan would deal with melancholy, he conditioned his readers against "godly sorrow", arguing for control of emotions. This books was published the same decade Oliver Cromwell converted to puritanism. It was said of Bolton "for there never was a minister in that county who lived more beloved or died more lamented."
