Copies of tliis edition were in the Gaignat, La Valliere, Pinelli, and
Crevenna collections. See Panzer, Annal. Typog. vol. ii. p. 407-8 : but
particularly Audiffredi, Edit. Rom. p. 10. The present copy is bound
in calf, gilt leaves, with a red morocco back. A copy was also in the
Bishop of Ely’s collection.

More correct than either of the two preceding editions, is the one
of which a description is now presented to the reader. Audiffredi,
Edit. Rom. p. 5S-G0, has given a list of a few of its variations from
the readings of the preceding impressions ; from which, it appears
that its episcopal editor, the Bishop of Aleria, has not boasted with-
out reason of its superior accuracy. The dedicatory Epistle of the
Bishop is on the recto of the first leaf, and bears date M.CCCC.LXX:
the reader may see it extracted in the Optimor. Scriptor. Edit. p. 79, of

already observed, proves that the works of Lactantius had been more

page 207, ante.
The table begins on the reverse of the first leaf; preceded by the
editorial epistle of the Bp. of Aleria to Paul II. The head of the first
chapter, beginning on the 13 th leaf, is here printed in 4 lines; diffe-
I’ent from the edition of 146S. A full page contains 38 lines. The
volume contains 210 leaves, exclusively of those of tlie table. On the
recto of the 222nd, from the beginning, at bottom, are the well known
