| General note | Two impressions noted. In this, presumably the earlier impression, the sixteenth category listed on the title page is "dramatics." On p. 17, "Shaw's Immanuel; or, A discovery of true religion" is listed out of order before "Romaine's Treatise upon the life of faith." In the other impression, the sixteenth category on the title page is "plays" and the entry for Shaw's Immanuel is positioned correctly. The two impressions are not distinguished in Shaw & Shoemaker. |
