John Carter Brown Library copy appears to be the same as that described by Vargas Ugarte but not necessarily the same as that described by Medina. According to Medina, the copy he saw in the Biblioteca Nacional de Lima was printed on one sheet that measured 46 x 26 cm.

John Carter Brown Library copy appears to have originally been folded and bound together with other materials in a vol. from which it was removed. Water stained; text affected. Has ms. inscription on verso: N.o 1. 23 de Sep.tre de 1808 = Abd.on de la corona p.r Carlos 4.o en el Principe de Asturias.
