General notes

The portrait is signed: F.H. Van Houe. sculp In addition to the general title page, there is an almost identical title page for "Pseudodoxia Epidemica" which follows the general title page. It lacks "Together with the Religio medici" and has imprint in larger type. Keynes says it was often discarded by binders who thought it was a duplicate general title page "Religio medici" (7th edition, Wing B5176) has separate dated title page, pagination, and register, with "printed for Andrew Crook" in imprint. According to Keynes this edition of "Religio medici" was never published separately. "Annotations upon Religio medici" by Thomas Keck and "Observations upon Religio Medici" by Sir Kenelm Digby (a reprinting of Wing D1441) have separate dated title pages within the continuous pagination and register of "Religio medici" Part 2, "Religio medici", identified as Wing B5176 on UMI microfilm "Early English books, 1641-1700" reel 837 Microfilm.
