VERY RARE. An exceptional copy having the
Capital spaces filled by initials painted in a

later, are all different. Many initials represent charming
putti, others have a landscape as background,
still others are of an ornamental or architectur-
al character. The first and the last leaves have been supplied
from another copy.
