All text block edges are gilt. This copy displays the typographical peculiarities ascribed by Straus and Dent to the fourth of the seven states of the first edition and is extra-illustrated, as issued, with 10 plates engraved by Hollar, Faithorne, and Lombart after artwork by Cleyn. These 10 plates are all taken from Ogilby's Virgil of 1654 and are painted over in watercolor. The volume is also interleaved with engraved plates from three other books: 58 leaves of plates and 16 pages of explanatory text from Emmanuel Schelstrate's Virgil of 1750 (London: Knapton and Sandby), 8 leaves of plates from Pierre Fulcrand de Rosset's L'Agriculture poeme of 1774 (Paris: L'Imprimerie royale), and 2 leaves of plates engraved by Picart from Bernard Fontenelle's Oeuvres of 1728 (The Hague: Gosse et Neaulme). Bound-in before the title page is a folded broadside specimen of Baskerville's types, dated to ca. 1760 by Gaskell. Leaf pi1 (blank) is wanting. The armorial bookplate of William Gott is present on the front pastedown and an early bibliographical inscription, in French, is present on the verso of the front free endpaper.
