Poor Robin, 1694. An almanack of the old and new fashion. Or, an ephemeris jestingly solid, and jocosiously serious; wherein the reader may find (if he be endued with five degrees beyond the longitude of Jack Adam's capacity) many excellent remarkable things, worthy his choicest observation. Containing a twofold kalendar viz. the Julian, English, or old account; and the roundheads, whimzey-heads, maggot-heads, paper-scull'd, slender-vitted, mugletonian, or fanatick account; with their several saints-days, and observations upon every month. Being the second after bissextile, or leap-year. Written by Poor Robin, knight of the Burnt-Island, a well-willer to the mathematicks
