Closely cut touching the headline on the last few leaves, A very good copy. Library Hub locates only a single copy, at Oxford.

With pencil shelf-marks, bookplate of Robert J. Hayhurst and his note that this volume came from the Rolle Library. It is very much in keeping with the books bound for the Rolle family of Bicton Park in Devon. They were probably bound by a local or itinerant binder, who could be quite inventive in his lettering.
