Two very similar settings identified. In this setting signature "A2" is under the "ur Fo" of "our Fore"; press figure "3" on p.6. The other setting has signature "A2" under " Fore" and no press figure on p.6
Date of publication conjectured from the activity of the printer and from evidence in the British Library copy's original binding which incorporates the title page of a 1763 edition of another work (ESTC T98552)
