Edition Notes
"Ha sido forzoso el desórden que se notará en la foliatura de esta obra. Desgraciadamente comenzó su impresion por el Documento VI, y quando se observó este error, era ya tan tarde, que no quedaba otro recurso que el que se ha tomado, estos es, el de poner los documentos por su órden, y que quede trastornada la numeracion de las páginas."--Advertencia.
