Sheet 3 has caption title "A briefe content of certaine clauses of the statutes of King Henrie the eyght, and Queene Marie, .." Sheet 6 has caption title "Necessarie additions." Sheet 7 has caption title "A commandement giuen by the Queenes most excellent Maiestie, .., concerning clokes and ruffes of excessiue length and depth."; sheets 1-6 reprint STC 8091, with 3-6 signed A3-A6. Sheet 7 may originally have concluded the set of sheets; perhaps because it has new text it is found in two settings: last indented line to right of initials begins: "other" (most copies) or "the". Sheet 8, which also has imprint as above, possibly represents a separate proclamation, but because of its date of issue is usually considered part of the present item--STC
