Thank-you Margaret, Deborah, and Richard. Your suggestions are very
helpful.

I don't have our copy in hand, but our description is consistent with the
BSB's two copies online. I've not found a signature statement for any other
copy, but VD18 <https://gso.gbv.de/DB=1.65/PPNSET?PPN=023113111> records a
jump from page 584 to page 609 (as do we). Thus, I infer that this signing
was intentional, not accidental, and is not unique to our copy.

Regards,
Jessie
