According to the catch word on E4, it would seem that chi1 recto, "Soneto de un apasionado de la obra, y del autor" and chi1 verso-chi2 verso, "Indice de lo que contienen las Tardes americanas" are bound out of place, but as this same sequence appears in the copy described by Medina (his own), apparently what happened is that after the work as a whole had been printed, it was discovered that the table of contents had been omitted. Therefore it was inserted before the "Introduccion que sirve de prologo"

Decorative initials; head-, tailpieces.
