Notes

Based on a translation by Richard Jonas of a Latin edition of: Roeslin, Eucharius. Der swangern Frawen und hebammen Rosegarten.
Imprint from STC. ESTC S116025 has Richard Jugge? but this cannot be correct as Richard Jugge died in 1577 and the business passed to his widow Joan who died in 1588.
Second line of title begins "of". Variant: quire A in apparently another setting; second line of title begins "Of". STC also notes variant setting of quire K inner sheet.
This edition has A2v catchword "hard".
Copy 1 Note: Anatomical illus. wanting.
