In the Rome copy, the print has been attached to other prints of literary works and treatises; the resulting volume is introduced by a handwritten index discussing the contents of the volume. The original colophon is missing and is reproduced by a handwritten note by a librarian. On the titlepage is an illegible handwritten note of possession.
