*** Melanctiion’s copy, with numerous marginal notes in the first volume, very
neatly written.
These volumes are of the highest interest, as we learn that Melancthon, during
the first year of his residence at Wittemberg, being then only twenty-two
years of age, gave public lectures to crowded auditories upon the works of
Homer.
It is curious to observe that, in the first volume many of the leaves have been
deprived of the lower margins; and if we may judge from the manuscript
note occurring on the second leaf, that portion cut away contained biogra-
phical and other matter relating to Melancthon.
