24mo. (8)pp. This the second issue, of slightly squarer dimension and with a tail-piece of two figures, one male (presumably Christ) and one female, embracing under a cross. This in addition to the title-page engraving of the three crosses at the scene of the Crucifixion. A rare edition from the Press. Erasure at upper right corner of title page has left discoloration, else a crisp and fine copy.
