This work is not mentioned in an early printing of a work by the same proprietors, A parlour companion ... And description of ... Gowland's vegetable lotion (dateable to between Oct. 1793 and June 1794); but it is in a slightly later version of the same, printed after Vincent's death (date unknown)
