Note
Not printed by Balthasar III Moretus. The imprint is a mystification. Probably printed in France, possibly in Paris by the widow of Simon Benard who printed an earlier edition (1688) with the same ornament (head of the Medusa) on the title page (f. A1 recto). In most gatherings half of the leaves are signed, and catchwords only appear on the last page of a gathering; both customs are typically French
The type area of the typographical title page measures 113 x 58 mm (f. A1 recto)
20 lines of roman type measure 54 mm (f. C1 recto)
