Notes Parts I and II are continuously paginated, but indexed separately, and Part II has a (cancel?) title page from the sixth edition of Part II.

This seventh edition was published after Henry Lintot's seventh edition in 1749, which names the (dead) Mary Kettilby as the publisher. This edition was produced by Kettilby's executrix who also published the fifth and sixth editions, and is likely the "real" -- or at least legal, in terms of copyright -- seventh edition. Lintot's edition boasts of a "new index" for both parts that this edition does not.
