A full page has 36 lines. Througliout the work there are spaces
purposely left for the insertion of the titles of the various departments,
by the pen or pencil of the rubricator. Each section begins with
two or more words printed in capitals. On the recto of the 163rd,
and last ]eaf, the colophon is simply as follows :
FINITO LIBRO LAYS ET GLORIA CHRISTO
M. CCCC . LXXI.
The reverse is blank. The present is a large and beautiful copy
of a handsomely-executed impression. It is bound in red morocco.
572. Nonius Marceulus. Printed hy Jenson.
Venice. 1476. Folio.
I consider this to be the first edition of the work by Jenson ; and
that Seemiller has been led into error, on the authority of De Bure,
in calling it the second. The rarity of it is probably not so great as
these bibliograplxers imagine. Of its beauty, there can be but one
opinion. Having read the notices of this edition by De Bure, Seemiller,
and Sardini, I conceive the following description of it to be sufficiently
particular:
On the recto of a ii begins a double-column table, which concludes
on the reverse of b 10 ; having 19 leaves. Tliesignatures a (including
a blank leaf for a i) and b liave each 10 leaves. A blank leaf is in-
serted for c i. On c 2, recto, the work begins — having 34 lines in a
full page: this signature has 10 leaves. From d to j, there are
only 8 leaves to each signature. On the recto of 5 12, is the imprint,
thus :
NONII MARCELLI PERIPATETICI TIBYRTICEN

PROPRIETATE SERMONVM IMPRESSA VENE
