The arrangement of preliminary leaves in this volume is so unusual as to
give the impression on a first examination that c1 is missing. But as
the copy in the Advocates' Library, Edinburgh, is similar to this,
except for the transposition of the half-title of "The Regicide," which
there precedes the Preface instead of the play itself, as in the present
copy, the supposition is that no leaves are lacking.
As the present copy is in the original boards, the arrangement of
signatures is easily discernible. For the preliminary leaves it is as
follows: Half-title and title, one unnumbered sheet; a, eight leaves; b,
eight leaves; c, six leaves, the first four lettered c2, c3, c4, and 2
(according to the actual folding of the sheet, there is no c1, the first
page being misprinted c2); two leaves, with no signatures, pasted
together, viz.: the end of the Preface (verso "Persons of the Drama")
and the half-title of "The Regicide" (verso blank); B, six leaves, the
first three lettered B2, B3, and B4; one leaf pasted to B and numbered
4. Signatures C-S are in eights.
The pagination of the preliminary leaves is as follows: Half-title and
title unnumbered, i-xxix (viii misprinted iii), four unnumbered pages,
and xxxvi-xlvii, the verso of which is unnumbered. The omitted numbers
between xxix and xxxvi indicate a missing leaf, but even though the
half-title of "The Regicide" were to fill the place, as in the copy in
the Advocates' Library, making the Preface to the whole book follow the
half-title of one of the works, which is an unnatural arrangement, there
would still be a missing leaf, as the first page of text of "The
Regicide" is numbered 3.
The simplest explanation of the discrepancy is to suppose a printer's
error in the pagination of the preliminary matter; i.e., xxxvi should be
xxxiv.
There is no copy of this edition in the British Museum or the Bodleian
Library, nor in the University or Trinity College Libraries, Cambridge,
and the copy in the Advocates' Library, Edinburgh, bound in full calf,
lacks the preliminary half-title.
With this record of signatures, the following collation gives the
lettering of the leaves as actually printed.
Collation: Half-title, one leaf (verso blank). Title with portrait, one
leaf (verso blank). Life, a1-a8 and b1-b7 (verso blank). Contents, b8.
Preface, c2-c8 (verso "Persons of the Drama"). Half-title of "The
Regicide," one leaf, which might be counted as c8, to complete the
signature c, or as B1, to precede B2. "The Regicide," B2-I5, in eights.
Half-title of "The Reprisal," I6 (verso "Persons repreſented").
Prologue, I7. Text, I8-O5 (verso blank), ending with the Epilogue.
Half-title, "Advice, and Reproof: two Satires. First published in the
Year 1746 and 1747," O6 (verso blank). "Advice," O7-P6. Half-title of

"'Spiller's Jests' I have never seen in any other collection." It is his

Although "Vanessa" [Hester Vanhomrigh] died in 1723, the present poem

J. Roberts, which contains some variations from the others, notably the
addition on page 35 of the ten lines beginning "But what Succeſs
Vaneſſa met."

Part I, page 35, line 5, and "ebe Houyhnhmns" in the running headline,
Part IV, page 165.
Portrait of Gulliver by Sturt and Sheppard, with inscription around the

green levant morocco, gilt back, side borders in floral and bird
design, doubled with red morocco, floral border, red figured silk
guards, gilt edges, by The Club Bindery.
Presumably the second edition. One of the three large paper copies on
record, a second being in the British Museum. This one measures 9 by
5-3/8 inches, and besides the six maps, has a portrait of Gulliver
without the inscription around the oval. Instead of two lines in Latin
beneath, the legend is "Captain Lemuel Gulliver, of Redriff Ætat. ſuæ
58."
The two title-pages of Volume I appear to be the same as in the
preceding edition, but in Volume II "Glubbdubdrib" has one final "b"
instead of two, and "Vol. II." is omitted. The type of "World" is
heavier faced in this edition. The text is reset; ornaments, use of
type, and spelling are different. In the Contents of Volume II,
"Pirates" in Chapter I is here spelled "Pyrates." Page 74 of Part III is
misprinted 44 in this edition, and not in the preceding; but the
misprint in the running headline on page 165, Part IV, is here corrected
to "the Houyhnhmns." "Glubbdubdrib" is spelled without the final "b"
in the text of both editions, except at the head of Chapter I, in the
preceding, which would point to the final "bb" on the title of Volume II
as a misprint corrected in the present edition.
In both editions Chapter VII of Part III is misprinted Chapter V. Part
III of the present edition contains 155 pages, whereas the previous
edition contains 154 and ends with a different signature.

Presumably the fourth edition. The pagination of the two parts in each
volume is continuous, and Plates II and VI, preceding Parts II and IV,
respectively, are both numbered Page I, as though made for the previous
editions, in which those parts have a separate pagination.
The title of Volume II follows line for line that of the edition No. I
preceding, with "Glubbdubdribb" spelled with two final "b's," but the
entire work is reset. As in the other two editions, Chapter VII of Part
III is misprinted V.
