Good (-); Second Edition in original leather with gilt along spine. Folio. pp. xxvi, title with armorial + xvi, 376 + 14 page glossary. Title surrounded by woodcut border. Missing errata leaf 3U8. This edition is "the earliest in which thorough punctuation was attempted, and in many other ways it is a distinct improvement upon Speght's first edition [of 1598]. Cover split from book and hanging by a single thread; ffep and title page detached; last page missing bottom right hand corner; cover shows chipping to all edges. Book contains all pages in very good condition - if rebound, would make an excellent edition!
