The only known copy of the original of this facsimile

came to the British Museum from the Garrick Collection.

It is now numbered "643 b. 45, impf." Eight leaves are

missing in the middle (Sig. SD), and the conclusion is also

lost. These lacunae are indicated by inserted slips in the

present edition.

The date of composition and printing may range between

1510 and 1520, but nothing is known nor can inferences

be drawn with any degree of certainty. The author is

unknown.

Mr. Herbert of the Manuscripts Department, British

Museum, after comparing this reproduction with the original,

says," The whole collotype is extremely exact in its corre

spondence with the book, except for a very slightly greater

thickness and blurriness throughout." This tendency to over-

heaviness in printing, to a certain extent inseparable from

collotype work, I hope to reduce to a minimum by using a

slightly harder paper for future issues.

JOHN S. FARMER.
