Flagellum: or, a dry answer to Dr. Hancock's wonderfully-comical liquid book which he merrily calls Febrifugum magnum, or common water the best cure for fevers, &c. (a Book proved beyond Contradiction, to be wrote when the Doctor was asleep.) Wherein Not only many obscure Passages, in that great Performance (which neither the Doctor nor any body else understood the meaning of) are ironically explain'd to the meanest Capacity; but the Use and Excellency of cold Water and stewed Prunes, is also clear'd up. Very fit to be bound up with the Doctor's Book. The second edition: with a postscript, containing a few merry reflections on a late bombastick pamphlet in defence of the doctor's book, wrote by one Tom Taylor, the first-born of all the Sons of Stupidity, and Bull-Rider to the Bear-Garden. By Gabriel John, a seventh son, and teacher of the occult sciences in Yorkshire
