Note generali

Initials; title vignette, a variant of McK. 379, without printer's initials.

Signatures: A-C⁴ (A₁ blank) D³.

Preface signed: T.G.  Henrietta R. Palmer (List of English editions and translations of Greek and Latin classics, London, 1911, p. 42) leaves these initials unidentified, whereas the Short-title-catalogue identifies them with Thomas Gokin. Both designate the initials as those of the translator, but the preface clearly states that the "worthy and learned Gentleman the translator hereof ... bestowed the same [translation] vpon mee; and I as freely tender it to others"; which seems to indicate that T.G. is not the translator.

Reproduction of original in: Bodleian Library.
