    Thesaurus of horror; or, The charnelhouse explored!! : being an historical and philanthropical inquisition made for the quondam-blood of its inhabitants! by a contemplative descent into the untimely grave! shewing, by a number of awful facts that have transpired as well as from philosophical inquiry, the re-animating power of fresh earth in cases of syncope, &c. and the extreme criminality of hasty funerals: with the surest methods of escaping the ineffable horrors of premature interment!! The frightful mysteries of the dark ages laid open, which not only deluged the Roman Empire, but triumphed over all Christendom for a thousand years! Entombing the sciences, and subsequently reviving all the ignorance and superstition of Gothic barbarity! / by John Snart.

    Snart, John. | Date: 1817
