One of four editions printed simultaneously. This is state b) described by Tchemerzine VII, p. 42. The errata leaf is signed S, the first headband "à la tête de buffle" is right side up, the letter to Brienne ends well with the word Fin. Title with a sphere. The typographical material is that of the Brussels Foppens, but the work is assimilated to the Elzevirian productions (Brunet III, 848 - Tchemerzine VII, p. 44 - Willems p. 538 - Rochebilière 436). - The last leaf (blank) that Rochebilière mentions is indeed present here.
