Being pp. 347–350, and marked on p. 349 with the signature Eee 3.

It begins in a chapter on jealousy and ends with the beginning of "Chap. xxix., of amorous or love-potions, call’d philtra, whether love may be procured by fascination."

It is very much in the style of Burton’s Anatomy of Melancholy, abounding in quotations.
