| General note: | The editor of Pamela = Samuel Richardson. Vols 3-7 bear the imprint: "London: printed for S. Richardson: and sold by John Osborn; Andrew Millar; J. and J. Rivington; and by J. Leake, at Bath", except vol.4 has "J. and Ja. Rivington" in place of "J. and J. Rivington". Vols 3 and 4 are found in two states: in the first state, three leaves of preface intended for vol.3 are found between the title page and text of vol.4. In the second state, the preface has been removed from vol.4 to be found between title page and text of vol.3 (Sale). Vols 5-7 were also issued as part of the 2nd edition, 1749.
