Note

Not a reissue, but a very close re-setting of the 1702 edition with "Ralph South" in imprint (ESTC N61)

The 1702 edition (ESTC N61) may have been a piracy of the Ralph Smith 1702 edition (ESTC T55005). Smith's address was "the Bible under the Piazza [or Piazza's] of the Royal Exchange, Cornhill". The ESTC (Nov. 2020) records the name "Ralph South" in two imprints only; this edition and the 1702 edition
