Verify pagination break. - Not in Foxon or NUC. - Earliest edition recorded by Foxon is 1733. The date in this imprint is "M.DCC:XXVIII.", which is probably a misprint for "M.DCC.XXXIII." The pagination seems to duplicate that of Foxon N256 et seq., pointing to a common origi with 1733 printings. However, the first five booksellers here appear in partnership in ESTC records only from 1726 to 1730 (ten of these at this writing), so there is some probability that 1728 is correct
