Notes:

The titlepage is a cancellans. The cancellandum, which reads: 'A chronological account of the world: in which is shewed, the age of the world ..', is dated 1700.

With a postscript, in which the author declares that: "In the printing of this small chronicle, I found that it did not fill two sheets of paper; therefore (with the advice of the printer,) I added something which I thought convenient to be known, to fill up the second sheet; .. when I had so done, I thought these two sheets too little to be published alone; and therefore I have added to them, .. A brief exposition of the thirteenth chapter of the Revelation; ..".
