In 1695 Jacob Tonson released two collections of Milton's works, both of which contained the following five titles: Paradise Lost, Paradise Regain'd; Samson Agonistes; Poems on Several Occasions and Hume's Annotations. This volume contains only two of these titles, and thus would appear at first glance to be incomplete. However, K.A. Coleridge, -- (A Descriptive Catalogue, p. 274), notes that the second collection "is not always complete."
