Notes
Description based on the Yale Center for British Art copy, in which the imprint of Pars prima corresponds to Koeman Wag 9B, while the imprint to Pars altera corresponds to Koeman Wag 9A. The central panel of the engraved title for Pars prima lacks the printed slip; instead, the central panel retains text of the 1583 edition. Contents correspond to Wag 9A / 9B.
