GRAMMARS AND LEXICONS. sModenci; 1499.
551. Crastonus. Lexicon. Gr. et Lat. Printed
in the Ojsice of Dionysius JBertochus of JBologna.
Modena. 1499. Folio.
This is rather an elegant volurae, and evinces the taste and zeal of
Bertochus in the cause of Lexicography. Seemiller informs us that
the copy which he described, contained, at the end, a Latin Voca-
bulary in alphabetical order, corresponding with the preceding Greek.
Of this Latin vocabulary we are informed that, Ambrosius of Reggio
was the author—at the solicitation of Simon Bambacius. Engel has
also noticed the same Latin supplement, and extracts twelve colophonic
lines from it. Incunab. Typog. fasc. iv. p. 114: Bibl. Selectiss. p. 49.
Orlandi, as Seemiller observes, makes mention only of the Greek and
Latin Lexicon. Orig. e Prog. &c. p. 206. The present copy is of the
same description as the one seen by Orlandi, since it wants the Latin
Vocabulary of Ambrosiiis.
On tlie recto of A ii, numbered fol. i. begins the epistle of Pisanus.
On fol. II. recto,
AESIKO'N KATA ^TOIXEI'XIN
The Greek Lexicon begins with a blooming, or ornamental capital, A.
The text is precisely similar to that of the first edition, and of the
edition of 1483. The Greek character is tall and rather cursive. The
folios are numbered as far as CXXVII, on V vj recto. The ensuing
signatures, X and g, have each 6, and j has 8, leaves. Then & 6, o 8,
