Uncontrolled note

MH-H reports: "The (retouched?) reproduction of the half-title of this copy in Swift's 'Works', ed. H. Davis, v.6 (1951), p.[147] wrongly suggests a variant reading "Two Pense", repeated by Teerink-Scouten & Rothschild. But the true reading is "Two Pence", as in other copies, the "c" in this copy being poorly inked or damaged."
