GRAMMARS AND LEXICONS. sVicenza; 1480.
593. Tortelliits Printed hij Hermannus Lich-
tenstein. Vicenza. 1480. Folio.
This is a mere reprint of the preceding impressions, but more espe-
cially of Jenson’s. It contains no more than what will be found in
this latter; with the exception of some peculiar additions at the end.
Tlie copy under description has 313 pencil-numbered leaves. On the
recto of the 312tli, the colophon is thus :
IOANNIS TORTELII ARRETINI COMMENTARIORVM
GRAMMATICORVM DE ORTHOGRAPHIA DICTIONVM
E GRAECIS TRACTARVM OPVS PER HERMANVM LICH
TENSTEIN COLONIENSEM VICENTIAE ACCVRATISSIME
IMPRESSVM DIE VLTIMAMENSIS OCTOBRIS ANNO MIL
LESIMO QVADRIGENTESIMO OCTVAGESIMO.
On the reverse is an address of Jerom Boninius to Constantine Robe-
ganus, * Notario Tarvisano.’ On the recto of the ensuing and last
leaf are some verses by the same ; from which I extract the following
—without having copied them from Seemiller, (Incunab. Typog. sasc. ii.
p. 54-5,) where the whole may be seen:
Iraprobus innumeris librarius ante talentis
Quod dabat: exigua nunc stipe uendit opus .
Nullum opus o nostri felicem temporis artem
Cellat in arcano bibliotheca situ .
Quem modo rex . quem uix princeps modo rarus habebat .
Quisque sibi librum pauper habere potest
Redditus liac etiam nuper Tortellius arte
Plurimus . escribas qua ratione docet .
Hunc eme qui lingua cultus cupis esse latina
Hunc eme gramaticus qui cupis esse bonus .
Scc. 8cc. 8cc.
The register follows; from which we learn that there are two sets of
alphabets for signatures. The first, A to P in eights, except A and, P
—the former of which has 10, and the latter only 6, leaves. Then a to
j in eights; after which, & has 6 leaves. The present is an indifferent
copy ; in calf binding.
