Another t.-p., here bound between the half-title & the t.-p. transcribed above, reads: Fables mises en vers par mr. de Mérard-St.-Just ... A Paris. Chez l'auteur, rue Sainte-Anne, no 14. 1787. Il n'y a eu que quinze exemplaires imprimés à [corrected in ms. to "de"] cet ouvrage.

According to Brunet, this edition also occurs with both the 1787 t.-p. & one dated 1792. Apparently the text sheets were printed in 1787 & later supplied with new t.-p.'s & preliminary matter when copies were distributed by the author. A prefatory poem "Hélène et une ilote" (p. [v]-vii) is dated 1792 & is included in the table.

Errors in paging incl. xxiv misnumb. xxvi.

Errata occur on p. xxiii-xxiv, not following p. 160 as indicated by cathchword there & statement on p. x.

Pt. 2 (160 p.) has separate signatures but no divisional title; the designation "Seconde partie" is printed at foot of p. [1].
