The imprint is false.This edition was secretly reprinted in 1672 and issued with the date of the original 1647 edition (Wing B348B)
With "Grays-Inn-Gate" in imprint; the original 1647 edition has "Grayes-Inne-Gate"
This edition has the title page in two settings. Setting (A): With "third" in title and printer's name and address on two lines. Setting (B): With "Third" in title and printer's name and address on one line. Quires B-C are in two settings. Setting (1): B1r and C1r have no ornaments at head. Setting (2): with a row of type ornaments at head of B1r, and a woodcut ornament on C1r. Quire D is in two settings. Setting (a): signature-mark "D" of D1 is under the "u" of "Conquerour". Setting (b): signature-mark "D" is under the "n" of "and"
Wing mistakenly identifies the state with imprint word "Walbanke" as the 1672 reprint
