summary

Yudlov records this edition as containing 21 leaves, based on a copy in the Durchslag collection. Our copy appears to be a variant as it ends with f. 20 but actually contains 22 leaves as the number “19” appears in three different leaves. Yudlov notes that the Durchslag copy contains illustrations. There are no illustrations in the present copy.
ff. 20 (i.e. 22). Margins closely trimmed and frayed, stained. Unbound. 8vo.
