La Serna Santander, and many of tlie old bibliographers, were igno-
rant of this rare and precious specimen of typography. Brunet
mentions it at p. 55 of vol. i. of his Manuel clu Libraire. See also Panzer,
as below.* The present is a fair sound copy, superbly bound in green
morocco. Jt was, formerly, like the Harleian copy, bound with the
Terence (printed at the same place) in wooden boards, covered with
calf.

In our account of the two dateless editions of this vvork (the one
printed at Spire, and the other at Strasbourg) the order of Laire is
followed; and the Spire impression has, in consecpience, the prece-
dency: although I am far from being strenuous in support of such
arrangement. The edition under consideration has been often and well
described. Maittaire relies upon the authority of Marchand; who,
mistaking probably the date of the compilation of the Index, for that
of the printing of the volume, places it under the year 1472. Hist. de
L'lmprim. p. 60. The same bibliographer refers to the Amcenitat. Litt.
vol. iii. p. 102 ; but on consulting this volume (edit. 1730) I find no
such book in the page referred to, nor any mention of it among the
early printed books of Raymund de Krafft, between the years 1469
and 1473 ; see p. 121, 130, of the same volume. Marchand thought
the book was printed ‘ by Peter Drach, Burgomaster of Spire, the only
known printer of that city in the XVth Century.’ Ibid.
