Running title reads: The state of Spaine.

As *1, the dedic[ation]. to R. Sonds, was pr[inted]. as H2 of [STC] 22997, it is clear that both "issues" were pr[inted]. at the same time. Whether the copies listed here [as STC 22996] are imperfect or represent a distinct issue is uncertain--STC.

STC (2nd ed.) 22996.

Heavy contemporary manuscript annotations; bookplate of Robert S. Pirie.
