SEVENTH EDITION, 1617. No. XII. Bodleian (Caldecott) copy, 1617.
A unique copy of the edition of 1617 was included in Thomas Caldecott’s bequest in 1833 to the Bodleian Library¹ (Malone 890). It bears the imprint ‘Printed for W. B. 1617.’ W. B. was William Barrett, the publisher or bookseller who
purchased the copyright of Leake in 1617. The volume is a small octavo ($4\frac{9}{16}'' \times 3\frac{5}{16}''$) with the same signatures and the same number of leaves as its immediate predecessors. The text seems identical with that of 1602.
¹ Dyce in his edition of Shakespeare mentions an edition of the year 1616. There is no other trace of it, and Dyce may have been thinking in error of the edition of *Lucrece* of 1616.
