Question ID: 314217
I am looking the poem "Cadenus and Vanessa" by Jonathan Swift,
printed and published in 1726 by J. Roberts at the Oxford-Arms in
Warwick-Lane. It is to my understanding the earliest print which can
be found containing this poem. If you know of an earlier print or one
from the same year by another publisher, this will also do.

If it is possible to buy one of the original letters Swift sent to
Esther Vanhomrigh, this certainly also has my interest.

In short, I want to buy either:
- an original print of the 1726 (or earlier) edition of "Cadenus and Vanessa"
- or one of the original letters Swift sent to Esther Vanhomrigh
and need to know: where can I find one of these items for sale, what
is the contact information and how much does it cost?

fp-ga pointed out in a comment that at least seven editions were
published in 1726. Any one of these will do.
