Cambridge University Library has a type-facsimile title page, also dated 1584, but with line 2 beginning "Roman¾ Britannic¾", whereas the genuine title page has "Roman¾ & Britannic¾"; it was apparently printed in London after 1705. The sheets are a mixture of STC 5687 and 5688, with a few (e.g. P1,6) in a setting different from any edition at C. St. Catharine's College has a different type-facsimile title page, also dated 1584 but having the anchor device (McKerrow, "Printers' and publishers' devices in England & Scotland 1485-1640", 195) and having on the verso th address "Cooperus lectori", which appears there in STC 5688 but not in 5689 or the other facsimile title pages; it was apparently printed in London, ca. 1680. The sheets are STC 5688, with readings "Annales" and "Ter."--STC.
