shield, azure, an ox passant to the sinister argent, with a ring through its

This impression is attached to the fly-leaf of a book from the Buxheim library,
“ Prima pars summse Antlionini,” with an inscription below in the same hand as that
reproduced by Warnecke, p. 9, accompanying the Zell book-plate. It is as follows :
Liber Cartnsien In Buclishaim gge Memingen pueniens a ofre nro dno liilprando
Brandenb'g de Bibraco otines prima ptem surhe Tlieologicat Anthonini. Oret’' g eo &
quibus desiderauit. Hilprand or Plildebrand Brandenburg was, according to this,
himself a Carthusiau. The Franks collection contains, in addition to three other
impressions which have been used as woodcuts, four impressions of this sarne woodcut
used as a book-illustration, with fragments of text (not identified) and rude woodcuts
(Dayid, another prophet, the sacred monogram) printed on the back. These are also
coloured, but less correctly and with inferior pigments, which have faded.
The arms have been wrongly described by earlier authors as those of the abbey of
Ochsenhausen. See Warnecke, op. cit., p. 8. Iiilprand von Brandenburg may have
been the founder of the “ capella domini Hilprandi ” mentioned in the inscription
quoted on p. 134.
