This edition presents the complete authorial work from its independent opening on PDF page 3 through the explicit completion colophon on PDF page 35. Thirty-three page-controlled units preserve the witness's physical topology, including doctrinal transitions that occur mid-page. The modern cover, publisher's preface, and later editorial glosses are excluded. Every unit was collated twice against the page image; archive and Tesseract OCR served only as locators, and the English is new.

The witness supplies no explicit reuse license, so this release contains the complete image-collated root text and fresh English but not the facsimile. PDF pages 1–2 are modern front matter; the authorial work runs continuously from PDF page 3 to its completion colophon on page 35.
