[DCRM-L] What is this sign?

[Noble, Richard]

ESTC gives the signature as "[fleuron]^4". You're right about that.

The table may be something of a floater, since the signature is not
positional. For example, the full ESTC formula represents a copy bound with
the table at end:

       Signatures: pi² ²pi1 ³pi² A⁴ B-2C⁶ 2D² [fleuron]⁴.
