- ↑ 3 vols., 1785. This is the second edition of the work published in 2 vols. in 1772. In the Advertisement (pp. v–vi) to this earlier work it was said: 'A Collection of Treaties was published in the Year 1732; and is now very scarce. The Treaties contained in that Work are not only very irregularly arranged, but upon comparing them with the detached copies published by Authority, were found to be very inaccurately printed; and some Treaties were wholly omitted.' The work of 1732 was in 4 vols.
