- Comments:
- CONTENTS: Mixture of letters, verse and prose. PAGINATION: p.128 misnumbered p.198; pp. 162-174 misnumbered pp.156-170. p.161-162 are missing: this is probably because the poem printed on those pages in other issues (A Disuasive from Marriage) was a duplicate insertion, and so the leaf has been cancelled.
- Other matter:
- Prefatory address 'To The Fair Readers' [2pp].
