First issue, with "loah" on p.67, line 2 (misprint for "loth"). This copy interesting for the alteration of two lines of verse in the "Omissa" at end, apparently in a period hand. The lines "Yet God hath wrought things as incredible / For his people of old; what hinders now?" are changed to: "Yet God of old hath for his people wrought / Things as incredible; what hinders now?" One of the catalogue entries mentions that there was a correspondence in the Pall Mall Gazette concerning this very alteration. Complete with the license leaf and final errata. Morocco bookplate of John Drinkwater; two old catalogue entries on front pastedown. Hayward 73; Wing M2152.
