On the death of William Finch, Viscount Maidstone

The "Irenicum" mentioned in title is printed on D3v with caption title: An irenicum or reflections on the conditions of peace by the trumpeter

Another issue, presumably earlier, lacks translations of the quotations from Virgil's Aeneid and Homer's Iliad printed on title page following the statement about the "Irenicum". In that issue imprint reads: printed in the year, 1674".
