The present work is riddled with such ‘extras.’ Only three of the pieces are by Butler. See G. Watson & I. Willison (eds.), New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature. 5 vols. Cambridge, 1969-1974 for spurious attributions, and for Butler’s own forgeries of William Prynne, e.g., the tract ‘Mola asinaria.’ See ESTC, T217176.
