With an additional title page (A1v), engraved, "A true and full coppy of yt which was most imperfectly and surreptitiously printed before under the name of Religio medici: the 5 edition printed for Andrew Crook: 1660". Keynes says that in some copies the engraved title page dated "1656" was used in place of the newly engraved "1660" one.

Errata notes on t.p. verso.

The "Annotations" have a separate title page, but the pagination and register are continuous. Digby's "Observations" have a separate titlepage with the imprint "printed by A. M. for L. C. and are to be sold by Andrew Crook" and have separate pagination and register. It is identified by Wing as D1444, but according to Keynes this edition was never published separately.

Contains advertising, after Religio medici on p. [1-5].
