Gulliver's Travels The first edition was released in two volumes on 28 October 1726, priced at 8"s". "6"d." Motte published "Gulliver's Travels" anonymously, and as was often the way with fashionable works, several follow-ups ("Memoirs of the Court of Lilliput"), parodies ("Two Lilliputian Odes, The first on the Famous Engine With Which Captain Gulliver extinguish'd the Palace Fire...") and "keys" ("Gulliver Decipher'd" and "Lemuel Gulliver's Travels into Several Remote Regions of the World Compendiously Methodiz'd", the second by Edmund Curll who had similarly written a "key" to Swift's "Tale of a Tub" in 1705) were swiftly produced. These were mostly printed anonymously
The Creek of the Four Graves The Creek of the Four Graves "The Creek of the Four Graves" is a poem by Australian writer Charles Harpur that was first published in three parts in "The Weekly Register of Politics, Facts and General Literature" on 9 August, 16 August and 23 August 1845. The author then published an erratum in the same paper on 30 August 1845 which corrects what appears to be a misprinting. It was later included in the author's poetry collection "The Bushrangers, a Play in Five Acts, and Other Poems" (1853), and was subsequently reprinted in various newspapers, magazines and poetry anthologies.
