FIRST TITLE PAGE OF THE FIRST EDITION, 171 leaves. The author's name is in italic capitals.

It should be observed, that although this variation is placed as the second state, it is just as likely to be the first, as there is no evidence to the contrary. The sale prices, therefore, which are quoted to what we describe as the first title may in some instances belong to the second; as before Lowndes pointed out the distinctions no particular attention had been paid to them.

Prefixed is a list of more than 500 subscribers, among whom are all the most distinguished characters of that period.
