As noted by the ESTC, "the second "I" in the imprint year "M.DC.LXII" is either faint or failed to print" in some copies of this book. This has misled some bibliographers, such as Wing, to list a printing date of 1661. An English translation of this reporter, by Francois-Xavier Martin, was published in 1793.
