Excerpt from Contributions Toward a Bibliography of Gulliver's Travels: To Establish the Number and Order of Issue of the Motte Editions of 1726 and 1727; Their Relative Acuraccy and the Source of the Changes Made in the Faulkner Edition of 1735; With a List of Editions in a Private Collection and Twenty-Five Plates In the two S. P. Editions of 1726 and in that of 1727 the preliminary leaves at the front of each Vol. I are numbered, the numeration including the title page and leaf of part contents, which themselves are, however, without numbers. In these editions, therefore, as in the C. P. Edition, the Parts were evidently not intended to be issued separately, SO far at least as those of Vol. I are concerned. In Vol. II as well as in Part II of Vol. I, in all of the editions, the preliminary leaves are not numbered.
