The first set of signatures includes 8: a to 0 being in eights, and 0
having only 4 leaves : a blank leaf forms the fourth. On the reverse
of 0 iii, we read the word TEAOC. On the recto of a i begins the
treatise of Moschopulus, thus :
ToD crofwTotTov ytoti XoyiooruTov xvpov p.otvovr]X tov sxo-
CT^OZTOVXOV AlOpdwdsVTC/JV EpWTYlfJCOtTOOV.
7TSp) TCpOtTOodlWV.
This treatise comprehends signatures, from ot to 0, in eights; 0 and i
have each only 6 leaves. On the reverse of i vj, is the imprint tsXot.
On the recto of a, begins the treatise of Corinthus :
Tlsp) AiuXsktoov tcuv irotpoi xoplvdov '7rctgexjSXv}Qsi<ru)V.
The signatures are ct, @, and y : the two former being in sixes, and the
latter having 8 leaves—but y iiii is erroneously marked y iii. On the
recto of y viij, we read only 4 lines and a half, without any imprint or
subscription; but from the exact conformity of this type with the
Isocrates of 1493, (see vol. ii. p. 97,) there can be no question that
the same artist executed both works. It has been already hinted that
the printer may be Scinzenzeler.
Besides the copies before noticed, the collection of Rover contained
one—Bibl. Rbver, 1806, pt. i. p. 130, n°. 611—which, although called
* magnifique exemplaire,’ is said to have been * pique de vers, ’ by
Brunet: Manuel du Libraire, vol. i. p. 239, 240. Sir M. M. Sykes has
also a fine copy, which was procured from Sicily ; and another equally
beautiful one is in the choice collection of the Rt. Hon. Thomas
Grenville. The present copy is sound, and rather large, but a little
soiled towards the beginning. In red morocco binding.
