paged. Title mounted. * 1 is inserted the wrong way round. Table of
contents. Parts I-VII. ‘Lenuoye’ in verse. At sig. E 6 occurs a
separate titlepage ‘The secōde volume of Fabyans cronycle,
conteynynge the cronycles of England & of Fraunce from the
begynnyng of the reygne of Kynge Richarde the fyrste, vntyll the
xxxii. yere of the reygne of oure moste redoubted soueraygne lorde
kyng Henry the viii.’, without imprint, within the same border.
Table of contents. ‘Prologue’. Lists of the Wards of London and the
parish churches within and without the city. The whole of vol. ii,
which has fresh pagination, is headed ‘The seuenth part’. The
collation given above follows that in Dr Sinker’s catalogue, but
there is strong reason to suppose that we should assume that E 6
was blank and that vol. ii began with a single sheet, unsigned, the
first leaf being blank and the second containing the titlepage to
that volume. The first edition appeared anonymously in 1516. In
some copies of the present edition, the third, William Bonham is
given as the printer’s name.
