THE HUMBLE ADDRESSES OF MANASSEH BEN-ISRAEL

To | His Highnesse | The | Lord Protector | Of The | Common-Wealth Of | England, Scotland, _and_ Ireland.

The Humble Addresses | Of | Menasseh Ben Israel, _a Divine, and | Doctor of Physick, in behalfe | of the Jewish Nation_. |

(_4to._ 4 _ll._ + 26 _pp._)¹ [I. S.]

¹ This was probably printed in Amsterdam, in anticipation of his visit to England.

A second issue from another press, and in which the collation varies (4 _ll._ + 23 _pp._ [I. S.]) may have been printed in London, as at the end it has the following addition:――

“Which is the close of _Rabbi Menesse Ben-Israel_, a Divine, and Doctor in Physick, in the _Strand_ over against the _New-Exchange_ in London.”

The British Museum copy of the 23 _pp._ edition has the following date in manuscript on the title page: “November 5, 1655.”
