From wikipedia, my bold to highlight information:
Quote:
Darwin made extensive revisions to the sixth edition of the Origin (this was the first edition in which he used the word "evolution" which had commonly been associated with embryological development, though all editions concluded with the word "evolved", and added a new chapter VII, Miscellaneous objections, to address Mivart's arguments

Check the ToC for the title of Chapter VII ?
This copy of the book
for example has Chapter VII Instinct
This
kindle book has Chapter VII Miscellaneous objections.
