Stefansky Chassidut, no. 82. There are some variations between the various copies of the first edition which were corrected during printing. For example, printed on a separate leaf bound at the end of this copy: "To inform and reveal that I have approbations from famous tsaddikim of our times for the printing of the holy book. Also approbations and prohibitions by scholars and rabbis of Spain…". In some copies, this section is phrased differently noting a different location. These variations demonstrate that this is the revised complete version of the first printing. [For more information on the stages of the printing and corrections of the book at the time of printing which initiated variations of the book, see the article written by Rabbi A. Schorr in: Bet Aharon V'Yisrael, Year 6 Issue 1 (31), pp. 139-187].
