Paging is very irregular, being numbered as follows: 1-120, 129-183, blank page, 177-232, 241-296, 285-392, 397-412. (i.e. pages 121-175 incorrectly numbered 129-183 and pages 233-396 incorrectly numbered 241-296, 285-392) Also several misprints in page numbers.
"This volume was very carelessly edited and printed. It actually contains only twenty-four, instead of twenty-six, sermons; sermon 9 is left out altogether but this omission is neutralised by the fact that under sermon 10 are included two sermons on the same text; on the other hand, two of the sermons are printed twice over, number 16 and 17 being merely repetitions of nos. 5 and 3."--Keynes.
