In the British Library copy, the unsigned 4-leaf quire appears at the end, with contents in different order, probably due to the binder folding the leaves differently.

The heading of Regius's letter on p. [7] is known in at least 3 states. The British Library copy reads: Raphael Regius Magnifico as sapie[n]ti domino Bernardino Martinengo. The Houghton Library copy has the same reading, with "salutem." at end. Hain records a copy with heading: Raphael Regius Magnifico Antonio Moreto salutem.
