The Project Gutenberg publication originally asserted the 1846 date for this translation.
"In the 1840s, Meinhold published what he claimed was an instructional document for the avoidance of witchcraft written by a minister. It was fiction." (Abebooks newsletter on "Jokes, Hoaxes & Other Literary Frauds", 2012-04-02)
As of March 2019 Wikipedia gives publication dates 1838 for the original, 1844 for the translation, and 1895 for the "luxurious" edition illustrated by Burne-Jones.
