Page 109 is numbered 108 (so, page 108 occurs twice), then numbers go through up to 119, page 120 is missing. This is a probable misprint and a brute fix for the misprint. IMSLP page lists publishers as Anne Playford and John Playford the Younger without any particular explanation, Contains “A Supplement to the Dancing-master, of new Dances, never printed before” (25 pages / 25 dances)

LOC copy contains the following addition: “The Second Part of the Dancing Master: Or, Directions for Dancing Country Dances, with the Tunes to Each Dance for the Violin or Flute. The Second Edition, with Additions”. IMSLP copy doesn't have any additions and possesses a slightly different title page. Page 9 is numbered 10, but IMSLP copy has a handwritten fix for it; page 104 is numbered 194, numeration jumps from page 196 straight to 198, IMSLP copy has page 202, 203 numbered 198 and 199, but proper numbers are handwritten above the printed one. In “The Second Part of the Dancing Master” (present in LOC copy only): page 21 is numbered 12, pages 35–58 are numbered 25–48 correspondingly. These are misprints
