This edition is not recorded in Gaskell as a production of the Foulis press, but the type is Gaskell's RLP 1 with a long-tailed Q, described by him as first used in the late 1750's; the watermarks are the Pro patria and crowned GR in wreath & circle, a paper much used by the Foulis press; and the general typographical appearance is typically Foulis.
