R for Obadiah Blagrave at the Bear in St. Paul's Church-yard, near the little North Door'. Sadly, the frontice page and title page are missing. As are pages 435 to 440 at the rear of the book. The remaining text block is complete but tending loose.

The tattered leather binding is almost detached. Internally, most of the text block is remarkably clean. Despite the flaws, this remains a very interesting volume. From the historical point of view. The poor condition is reflected in the price.
