TRANSCRIBER’s NOTE:

As most of the illustrations are without any caption text, instead of just using the caption has been taken from the printed LIST OF ENGRAVINGS instead. In the few examples where a caption was printed this follows underneath, e.g.

BIRD’S-EYE VIEW FROM MAP OF LONDON, 1658.

The original uses some characters for contridiction and truncation that can not be represented in this document.

For example letter p followed by a symbol like a inverted G on its side as supscript then nt followed by a symbol like a large italic letter e abbreviates the word presents.

The final symbol also occurs in the words products and thoughts with the final s being replaced by a symbol like a large italic letter e.

Apart from the ordinal indicator applied to some dates e.g. 15º all other superscript e.g. 26th or the final letters of some words e.g. the e of ye are not indicated in any special way.

There are also some letters with tilde and macrons, which may or may not display correctly depending on the viewing device and/or font chosen, examples follow Invenc̃ons, tilde above letter c, Mīa, macron above letter i, (run̄ing away) macron above first letter n.

Changes from the printed Errata have been applied.
