AN ACCOUNT OF SOME

Imaginary

APPARITIONS

The EFFECTS of

FEAR OR FRAUD.

FROM VARIOUS AUTHORS.

"Would you your tender offspring rear With minds well form'd. devoid of fear, Ne'er let the nurse with idie tale Of Ghost their infamt ears assail, Or Bug-a-boo! or Chimmney Sweep! To Terrify them into Sleep. Thus, when matur'd by ripping age, And brought up n the worlds great stage, No midnight horrors vex. the Soul Of howling dogs, or hooting owl! . But on they more with many tread, Accross the mansions of the dead Or pass the ruin'd tower, where Tradition says' Goblins appear."
