ESTC online lists 2 copies, at BL and Bodley. Despite the erratic pagination, the text is continuous and conforms to the BL copy. The final 52 pages are a separate section devoted to pamphlets. With probable rodent damage affecting lower section of first seven leaves, portion of titlepage absent with loss of text, ditto Index leaf, part loss of text for the remaining 5 leaves - although all the entries are intelligible, there is similar but lesser damage to top edge, not affecting text.
