Résumé/commentaire:

Armand Hugon - Gonnet, Bibliografia Valdese (1953), n. 1628.

Seconda edizione del opuscolo di Stouppa del giugno 1655 intitolato: A Collection or Narative.  La differenza tra le due edizione si riduce a pochi elementi. Il più importante è l’inserimento di uno speciale „The Stationer to the Reader“ (p. [V]) (cfr. Balmas, La vera relazione, p. 159  (n. 6)).

In ogni caso l'Appendix  (pp. 23-26) era mandato da Antoine Léger, come risulta dalla sua lettera (s.d., ma scritta attorno al  3/13 maggio): "One of those poor fugitivs [...] confirms whatsoever is said in the Appendix of the Apologie, which you have received heretofore; adding many cruelties [...]". Probabilmente Antoine Léger fu l'autore dell'appendice e delle tre apologie (cfr. Albert de Lange, Antoine Léger, ed. italiana, p. 225 n. 194).
