APPENDIX 1

Copies Examined

Asterisks indicate offset exchanges with non-adjacent pages (other than the frontispiece) by at least one page of the partials and cancels. Leaf dimensions are in millimeters. The frontispiece (frt) is present unless "-frt" is noted. Irregularities in copies are indicated. Nearly all copies without binding information are in contemporary calf.
