In the English edition Kuyper’s preface was replaced by a short introduction by Winnington-Ingram (1858–1946). The introduction is printed on both sides of a double-columned, unnumbered sheet. Winnington-Ingram states (silently borrowing from the original preface by Kuyper, whose name is nowhere mentioned) that the scenes are arranged in order of their importance for the reader. To each portfolio a bifolium was added with a title page and the contents of the portfolio. Two irregularities in the pagination of the Dutch edition were corrected. The use of laid paper, the appearance of the type matter, and the layout suggest that this edition may also have been printed by Elsevier, Amsterdam.
