Sacheverell, Henry The Tryall of Dr. Henry Sacheverell before the House of Peers for High Crimes and Misdemeanours; upon an Impeachment by the Knights, Citizens and Burgesses in Parliament Assembled .. February 1709/10, London, 1710. Folio, [4], 335pp including licence leaf at front, full calf, very good. A full account of the trial of the fiery Jacobite Sacheverell by the pro-Williamite House of Lords. Although convicted by the partisan Lords the sentence was, in the face of serious public disorder, so light as to humiliate the Whig Lords and bring the semi-Jacobite Tories to power.
