This is the second volume of this publication, very seldom found. It contains the plate illustrations. There is a note in the preface to the second edition that some of the fragments on plates 19 and 20 have been re-arranged based on newly examined evidence, and that some of the negatives for the other plates were redone. Scarce. The translation of these fragments was published with commentary in a smaller, separate octavo volume of around 200 pages. Sadly, this volume is not included.
