False imprint; printed in London by William Dugard, perhaps, as Madan suggests, for Francis Eglesfield.

Errors in paging, including omission of 33-38 in numbering of pt. 3.

Compiled and translated by Denis Cailloué, His dedication to Charles II (pt. 1) signed "..."; dedications to the Earl of Bristol (pt. 1) and to the Queen (pt. 3) signed "D.C."

Authorship of Eikōn basilikē attributed to Charles I and to John Gauden. The present text is Cailloué's original translation; a revision by J.B. Porrée had already been published in 3 eds. at Rouen.

The "Prieres" in pt. 1 have special t.-p.; pts. 2 & 3 have special title-pages "Cahiers, de la conference par écrit, tenue à Neufchastel, en l'année MDCXLVI. entre, Sa Majesté ... et le sr. Alex. Henderson ..." and "Metamorphose des Isles Fortunées. A la reyne dovairiere de la Grande Bretagne. Ode [par D. Cailloué] ..."

Error in binding: dedication to Earl of Bristol, included in count of prelim. leaves of pt. 1, misbound at end of pt. 3.
