Notes

Each of the three essays is separately paged. The two annexed treatises are paged continuously
"Of the strange subtility of effluviums," "New experiments " and "A discovery of the perviousness of glass" have special title-pages
Copy 1 Note: This issue is without the Essay of gems or the Prodromus, but the Library has a copy of the Prodromus which corresponds to the description given in Fulton 107; this has the Essay of gems bound with it and it seems probable that these two works originally formed part of the above edition.
