Only one Snpplement, ‘ Exiui de Paradiso,’ follows ; occupying a little
more tlian two leaves. This is printed in the small roman type.
Audifffedi has observed that, in the middle of the volume, there is a leaf,
on one side of which the text and gloss are printed as usual: on the
other side, is only the gloss or commentary, with a square space for
the text—but I do not observe such peculiarity in this copy. The
present is a large, elean, and sound copy of an uncommon impression ;
and is bound in blue morocco.
673. Ceemens V. Papa. Constitutiones. Printed
hy Jenson. Venice. 1476. Folio.
The year 1476 is particularly distinguished, in the Annals of
Jenson’s Press, for some of the most beautiful and extraordinary
productions of the typographic art. We have here a worthy com-
panion to the Decretals of Boniface VIII., mentioned at p. 200-1, ante;
except that the vellum of this copy, is occasionally, very tawny or
discoloured; and the illumination, prefixed to the text, much injured
by some deliberately, mischievous hand. The latter presents us with
the Pope seated in a chair, in the middle : two Cardinals to the l’ight,
sitting—one Cardinal, to the left, also sitting; and a priest kneeling
beside him. The composition and manner of colouring bespeak the
same skilful hand which is discernible in the fac-simile given at p. 200,
ante: and there is little doubt of both illuminations being the produc-
tions of the same artist, and intended for the same characters. The
St. George, at the bottom of the page in this copy, 'is, however, much
inferior to what appears in the page last referred to. On the recto of
the same leaf, a 2, printed in bright red, we read this prefix:
