Notes: First published in England, in about 1750. While most American editions identify the minister as Thomas Chamberlain, he is identified in English editions as Richard Brightly. The date of Chamberlain's supposed death is variously reported in American editions as 1748 and 1784.

Evans suggests that this edition was printed by James Chattin of Philadelphia in 1755. However, a copy held by the American Antiquarian Society bears an inscription dated April 16, 1752. A type ornament employed (Reilly 726) was frequently used by Edes & Gill of Boston from no later than 1755, and was used by other Boston printers as well. The first recorded use of that ornament was by Christopher Sower of Germantown, in 1752.
