Landwehr cites two different issues of this emblem book. One has imprint: Antuerpiae : Venalia apud auctorem; the other has imprint: Venalia apud auctorem, prostant apud Hieronymum Verdussen. In addition the preliminaries are different. Some copies lack "In Cupidines Othonis VaenI" by Max. Vrientius.
