| General note | Each sheet is imposed as a 4⁰. The tables were evidently intended to be kept folded but opened for use "just as it is wont to do for the use of a geographical map." - "192d Pennsylvania District copyright, issued to P.R. Wouves, as author, 9 November, 1787"--Evans. |
| General note | ".. by means of which any sort of writings, taken from either the French, English, Dutch, Spanish, Portuguese or Italian languages .. can easily be rendered or converted into numerical figures." - Extracted from Wouves's planned work on steganography and made available to subscribers prior to publication of the whole. The work as a whole was never published. |
