There are three series of page numbers: First series of page numbers 81-224; second series begins with the sermon on Acts 4:13; Third series begins with the sermon on John 21:7. Sermons in the third section are rubricated in red. The hand in the second section seems to be different from that in the first and third. The first and third may or may not be the same.
