A rare variant state yet lacks the final quire 2S]8, the prayers for the Gunpower Treason, the Martyrdom of Charles I, and the birth and restoration of Charles II and instead, quire 2R is followed by quire ]2A]4 (last leaf blank) bearing an order by William Juxon, Archbishop of Canterbury, to make prescribed revisions to the prayer book's text; 2Rv wants the order of the King and is blank. This state may also contain a cancel of e2v (The Order of Morning and Evening Prayer ...) which has only a single rule at foot and lacks catchword 'THE'; where the later state of this leaf bears, on the recto, the table for "To find Easter for ever.", the recto of the cancel leaf is blank
