Notes Worldcat attributes translation to "Edward Arrowsmith" while The Dartons cites "Rcd £10 'for the copy right & future interest ... for Miss E Arrowsmith.'" The Dartons adds for the second edition: "The translator's preface, unaltered since the previous edition, is now inexplicably signed: C. F. A." Edward Arrowsmith died in 1759: this could be the sale of the copy right to a relative of his? Unclear who is the translator.
