This day is published, price 3s6, a new play, called The
Jealous Wife, by one of the most ingenious writers of the
age, George Colman, Esq; author of that justly celebrated
work The connoiseur. This comedy is founded upon the
circumstance of Sophia's flight to Lady Bellaston, in Tom
Jones; character, incident, conduct and sentiment, exist in
every page. It has run thro' three editions in three weeks,
and is justly esteemed the best dramatic piece exhibited on
the stage since Dr. Hoadley's Suspicious Husband. Sold by
James Rivington, bookseller and stationer, over against the
Golden-Key, in Hanover-Square. . .
Also of the said James Rivington may be had, an hundred
different sorts of comedies and tragedies; and the greatest
variety of books and stationary wares, wholesale and retail.
