There is a concealed second edition of vol. IV in 1761; this is easily distinguished by the correct spelling of "fancy" on p. 73; in the first edition it is mis-spelt "facy".
"Because the frontispiece is keyed to an incident in vol. IV, it is sometimes found with that volume; it is however conjugate with A8 of vol. III (Monkman).
