A reissue of STC 14754. In this issue, "Bartholomew Fayre" and "The staple of newes" are generally omitted, and vol. 2 consists only of the general title page plus a reprint of "The Divell is an asse" (Wing J1011). (The above pagination reflects this.) The latter has imprint "Imprinted at London, 1641" and was printed by Thomas Harper (STC). The last leaf of this is blank.
Volume 3, printed by John Dawson 2 for Thomas Walkley, lacks a general title page, and the order of the parts varies; the order given here follows Greg. "Christmas, his masque" begins pagination on B1; within this section, "Under-woods" and "Mortimer his fall" have separate title pages dated 1640. "The magnetick lady ... printed M.CD.XL. [sic]" begins new pagination and register; within this section, "A tale of a tub. ... printed M.DC.XL." and "The sad shepherd ... printed M.DC.XLI." have separate title pages. "Horace, his Art of poetrie ... M.DC.XL." begins new pagination and register; within this section, "The English grammar ... M.DC.XL." and "Timber ... M.DC.XLI." have separate title pages.
Volume 3 was edited by Sir Kenelm Digby.
