"An abstract, of certaine acts of Parlement: of certaine her Maiesties iniunctions: of certaine canons, constitutions, and synodals prouinciall ..", a partial reprint of the work attributed to William Stoughton (STC 10394), has separate title page and register; it is usually found preceding the Answer. "Dispensations for many benefices vnlavvful" (caption title) has separate register; it is usually bound between quires P and Q. The collation above reflects an order in which the "Abstract" precedes the "Answer".

The last leaf is blank.
