Boston Public Library (Rare Books Department) copy bound in early tawed pigskin over bevelled wooden boards stamped in blind with an unidentified, gilt ecclesiastical super-ex-libris on both covers. The thongs, presumably original to the binding, are of pigskin, with brass clasps and catches. A circular, purple ink stamp is present on the front pastedown, though the lettering of the stamp remains illegible. All text block edges are stained red. Early marginalia, in a number of different hands, are present throughout.
