Note
Anonymous. By Thomas Wagstaffe.

The words "Eikōn basilikē" on title page are in Greek characters.

A reply to the memorandum by Anglesey and to "A true account of the author of a book entituled Eikōn basilikē" by Anthony Walker (Wing W310).

The Anglesey memorandum, which supports the claim that John Gauden, and not Charles I, was the author of the "Eik?n", was printed on a singleton and added to some copies of the Amsterdam edition of John Milton's "Eikonoklast?s" (Wing M2115).
