Notes:

Hall notes this printing as in a blue cloth binding. As can be seen, the binding on this copy is brick cloth. Internally, it matches Hall's description. We assume that this is a later printing, although it is not so noted.

This is a reprint of original copy no. 13 of the large paper edition, Hall F3 (A21a), with the prelims somewhat rearranged and a new title leaf added.
