- Mispagination: In Sedley's works: 147 mispaginated as 417; 163 as 463; 168 as 68. In the parliamentary speeches, 104 as 204; 128 as 228; 129 as 229. Though presented as 'the Second Edition' this is a reissue with addition of Rochester's speech. In BOD 12 Theta 1282, this is placed between sheets A and B (i.e. after A8). ESTC describes a copy where this is placed after A4. This is possibly based on the BL copy, which is used in ECCO. Cecil's 'State of a Secretaries Place' is also added to the end meaning the final leaf of the original has been replaced, and one further leaf added.
