"Of political history in general ..." (p. [157]-256) has special t.-p. dated 1669; "Of the history of successions ..." (1 ℓ. 257-351 p.) has special t.-p. dated 1670; John Prideaux' "A synopsis of councels" has special t.-p. dated 1671, and separate paging and signatures.

This issue has "indixes" and, in the Latin motto on the t.-p., "accidere" and "peurum"; a later issue corrects these errors.

In John Prideaux' work, p. 58 and the 1st unnumbered page following have been imposed in reverse order.
