- "The funerals of the high and mighty prince Henry, Prince of Wales, Duke of Cornwaile and Rothsay, Count Palatine of Chester, Earle of Carick, and late Knight of the most noble Order of the Garter" has separate title page dated 1613. It may have been issued separately (STC 13157), and is probably not by Chapman.

- The engraved plate has title "The herse, and representation of our late highe and mighty Henry Prince of Wales, &ct:". It bears verses by Hugh Holland and George Chapman, and is signed "Guli: Holus sculp:" (i.e. William Hole). An early state lacks the signature.
