Abstract

Verrius Flaccus (grammarian), fragments, and Sextus Pompeius Festus, De Verborum Significatione.

Pr. Iohannes Maria Bonellus, Venice, 1559 (the colophon has 1560).

The ‘series chartarum’ on the last page of the book (shown here) provides a guide for the binder to ensure that he sewed the book in the correct order. Each quire or section was assigned an alphabetical letter which, with the leaf number, appears at the foot of the leaves (usually four) in the first half of each quire: a1, a2, a3, a4. This system was already used in late medieval manuscripts.

On the last leaf, 16th-cent., ‘Thomas Plower His Book’. From the Library of Christ College; given by Rev. R. R. Davies in 1852.

Uncatalogued.
