THEOLOGY.
[Epistola1471.
There are 35 lines beneath; a full page occupies 38 lines. For the
first 15 pages the last lines are the same as those in the subsequent
impression, except that the contractions vary. On the recto of the
184th leaf, from the beginning of the editorial epistle, there is the
usual metrical colophon (see p. 20ante), with the date subjoined thus:
M. CCCC. LXXI.
This is considered tobethe first edition of St. Cyprian’s Epistles,
and was printed from an ancient MS. of them discovered at Paris.
Consult the brief but valuable notice in Audiffredi’s Edit. Rom. p. 72;
where Laire is rather severely chastised; and where, in opposition to
the supposed dearth of copies of this edition at Rome (as stated by
Laire), Audiffredi makes mention of six copies, Itwasin the Gaignat,
Valliere, Pinelli, and Crevenna Collections, The present is a fair copy,
slightly wormed, and bound in red morocco.
88. Cyprianus. Epistolae. Printed hy Vindelin
Spire. Venice. 1471. Folio.
It is now allowed that tlie present edition is subsequent * to the
preceding one; being, in fact, a copy of it; with the exception of the
errata, which arehere amended. Consult Maittaire, Annal. Typog. vol.
i. p. 301. Panzer tells us tliat another (supposed) Venetian edition of
this date, mentioned by Saubert, Beughem, and La Caille, is merely
supposititious; as Chevillier has properly noticed. The present im-
pression commences with a table, on the reverse of the first leaf, which
ends on the reverse of the second, at the seventh line. On the recto
of the ensuing leaf:
Incipiunt epistolp Cecilii Cypriani ad Cornelium
Papam. Et prima de confessione. feliciter.
Beneath, are 35 lines. A full page contains 38 lines. On the
reverse of the last leaf,
Loquitur lector ad Vindelinum Spirensem Artificem
qui Epistolas Beati Cipriani reddit in lucem.
M. CCCC. LXXI.
* In thc Bibl. Smith. p. cxl, it is erroneously called f Editio omnium pdma.’
