The Collection of " Facetie " is the fii-st edition, and contams many passages

suppressed in the subsequent. Gamba describes it as "molto raro." The

Sporta of Gelli is in reality thought to have been the production of Machia-

velli, and that after the MS. falling into Gelli's hands he had added a few

things and appropriated it to himself. This edition is mentioned by Gamba

as " elegante e rara."

524 THE MISCELLANEOUS POETION OF

4797 Merigot (J. J.) Catalogue de ses Livres, with the prices in MS.

4798 Merlini Ambrosii, Prophetia Anglicana, cum septem libris explanationum

in eandem Prophetiam Alani de Insulis 8yo. Francofurti, 1603

A scarce edition in seven books, at the end of which the volume has " finis libri ultimi." M. Brunet (in article Galfridus) quotes only modern editions of this romance of chivalry in Latin.

Containing the Bishop of INIerseburg's Sermons on the Creed, Lord's Prayer, Decalogue and seven Sacraments. The good Bishop condemns the prac- tice of painting nude figures in churches, and exclaims, " Jetzt werden die BQder also auszgestrichen, wann es nit in der Kirchen were, so mocht man sprechen, Das wehre ein feine htiren riistung," &c.

accurata Textus Explicatione Item Observationes et Emendationes ad F. Georgii Veneti Problemata, 2 vol. in 1, with the Mtisie

folio. Lut. Paris. 1623

One of the most extraordinary works ever issued from the press, into which the author has athnitted discussions on almost every subject. The most curi ous of these are those on Astronomy, Mathematics, Music (p. 1G33-1678, with musical notes), his new French Orthography, and his Tirades against Atlieists and Atheism. This work contains a long poem, in French, in hex- meter verse.

Ballistica et Acontismologia, 3 vol. in 2, with numerous woodcuts ; from Sir George ShuclcburfjV s Library EAEE \to. Paris, 1644-47

An exceedingly interesting collection, which is of a very rare occurrence, and seldom to be found complete. Father Mersenne was m constant corres- pondence with all the most celebrated men of his time, namely, Galileo, Torricelli, Pascal, Descartes, Fermat, Roberval, &c. and in this collection has published, besides his own writings, most imjiortant works and letters of his eminent friends not to be found elsewhere, and including, not only tlieir discoveries, but also their scientific quarrels. In these volumes, so highly important for the history of sciences, there are ancient marginal annotations, very probably in the handwriting of Mersenne himself.

A most curious work full of all sorts of information, some of which we may wonder to discover in an Italian book at this period, as for example, the account of Pope Joan. In it will be found several Xovellette, an account of the Invention of Writing and Printing, witt^- sayings, the Dis- coveiy of America and adjacent Islands, with an account of the Manners and Customs of the Inhabitants, Description of Ethiopia and Prester John, the Origin of the Gipsies, &c. &c.

old calf ^ folio. Paris, chez Pierre T Huillier, 1572

This edition was superintended by the famous Denys Sauvage, and is pro- nounced by Brunet " le plus belle que nous ayons de ces Chroniques." Monstrelet commences precisely where Froissart leaves off, and although his pages are not painted in the delightful style of his predecessor, still there is a quaint charm about his writings that will always attract numerous readers. In spite of Eabelais' reproach of his being " baveux comme un pot a moutarde," the naive pages of Monstrelet must be studied by all who wish to fathom the causes of recorded effects. These Chrouicles are a_ fruitful mine, whence may be dug out an immense quantity of precious historical documents in the shape of harangues, edicts, pleadings, decla- rations of war, treaties, &c. &c. all given entire.

The fly- leaves (four leaves) of ancient veUum have been taken from an ancient manuscript of the IXth or Xth Century, of a very curious character, but much defaced.

538 THE MISCELLANEOUS PORTION OF

4939 MoNTEREGio (Joanne de) Kalendario :

Questa opra da ogni parte e un libro doro Non fu piu preciosa gemma mai Dil Kalendario : che tratta cose asai Con gran facilita : ma gran lauoro, &c. LARGE COPT, cuts foUo. VeiietUs, B. Pictor de Augusta,

P. Loslein de Langencen, Erhardus Eatdolt de Augusta, 1476 This Italian version of Monteregio's Kalendar is far rarer than the Latin, and indeed, as the title expresses, " un libro doro," of which there never was " piu preciosa gemma." The Calendarium itself is the same as the Latin, and the other parts differ only in having Italian for the letter-press, the cuts and capitals being identical. It has the same title as the Latin one, with the date and the names of the three printers, but in Italian. This Calendar was undoubtedly printed at the same time for the learned and unlearned, and like Almanacs of the present day those (the Latin) fell into the hands of astronomers, by whom copies were carefully preserved, whilst these (the Italian) when the year was out were destroyed as no longer of use.

4940 MoNTEREGio (J. de). Das Biichlin Kalendarius durch M. Johan von

Kiingsperg (Monteregio), cuts folio. Venedig, Bernhart Maler'Erliart Batdolt voiiAvgspurg, 1478

This German edition is still rarer than the Latin or Italian copies of 1476, and has escaped Ebert and even the indefiitigable researches of M. Brunet, who does not mention it. The Kalendar itself is in some parts different from the Latin, the cuts, capitals, and figures however being identical, having, also German letter-press substituted for the use of the vulgar. The forms had evidently been kept standing, and a Kalendar for Germany havmg been called for this edition was the result. Speaking of Monte- regio's Kalendar, the verses on title-page state : —

" Das hat gemacht maister hans von kiinigsperg genannt In teutschen und welschen landen wol erkant," &c. No copy of this rarity appears to have been ever sold by public auction.

\* The three Almanacs described above are of such extreme rarity that the first two have been seen only by very few, and the last seems to have escaped the notice of aU the principal bibliographers. In a learned dissertation "On the earliest printed Almanacs," inserted in the "Companion to the Almanac for 1 846," Mr. De Morgan quotes from the Plamsplmrium of Bartsch the first of the above three, the Latin Kalendarium printed at Venice, in 1476, but does not seem to have been acquainted -with the second (the Italian one), pi-inted by the same printers in the same year, in the same town, and possibly printed (for Italian people in Italy) previously to the Latin edition. As for the German Kalendarium, published at Venice in 1478, with the exception of Hain, w?i,o saw only an imperfect co^n/ of it, it seems to have remamed unknown to all bibliographers; although besides its rarity, it has also the merit of being the second German book printed out of Germany, the first being the Golden Bidl printed by Jenson, also at Venice, in 1476 or 1477. This German Kalendarium differs in many points from the previous two of 1476; the arrangement of the matter and contents seeming different. We must add, that the number of leaves differs also in the various editions, and even in the various copies, in consequence of the plates having been in some copies pasted together (on the blank sides of the leaves) as it is often the case in block books, while in others they remained separated. The Latin and Italian editions of 1476 consist of 32 leaves each, while the German edition of 1478 has 30 leaves. No doubt, from the inspection of an hnperfect copy, Hain was induced to say that tliis last edition has only 28 leaves instead of 30.

trouano su' monti libri II, idth j^lat^s, from Dr. Fitton's Collection vellum 4<fo. Venezia, 1740

A first-rate work, containing the foundation of the whole of the modem geology. The name of Moro, however, is not to be found either in the modern French works, in which his great discoveries are introduced as modei'n French discoveries, or even in the historical portion of the " Lettres sur les Revolutions du Globe, par A. Bertrand," with annotations by Arago, de Beaumont, &c. (Paris, 1839, in 8vo.) Unfortunately, even in Italy, the illustrious name of Moro is not so generally known, as it ought to be, as one of the greatest champions of Italian science.

This is perhaps the most important work of the celebrated Muratori, and it may well be said that no one can obtain any true knowledge of the history of manners, arts, sciences, letters, etc. etc. of Italy without being well ac- quainted with the present pubHcation, which amongst innumerable ancient documents contains the Commentary upon Dante by Benvenuto da Imola, the Historia Romana of the time of Cola di Rienzi, in the romanesco dialect, etc. etc.

The editor, John Balesdens, was the celebrated book-collector, and famous for recommending the French Academy to prefer the gi-eat Cokneille as a member to himself. In consequence of its compliance with his request, he was not elected until two years afterwards. The designs for the Mnemonic Cards in this rare volume are very elegant.

This volume formerly belonged to the famous physician, Nicholas de Nancel, born in 1539, of parents so poor as to be unable to give him even the rudi- ments of education, and yet at the early age of 13 achieving for himself such celebrity as subsequently to obtain the degree of Master of Arts and a Professorship. It is a great curiosity, as in his autograph there is an interlineary translation of the Poem of Musseus, with his signature " Sura Nicolai Nancelii," having the date of 1552, in which year he could have been barely 13, attending Lectures in the College of Presles, and probably without funds to get his book bound, as the Translation has evidently been written whilst still in sheets. As a memorial of the pursuit of know- ledge under extraordinary difficulties, this volume is truly interesting.

A most important Manuscript upon pure vellum of the end of the Xlth or beginning of the Xllth Century, having at the top of the fii-st page the name of the donor, " Hartraannus tradidit librum istum," a very rare occurrence in ancient manuscripts, and also the mention " Liber S' Petri in Augia Minori" at the end, and various other devices of former pos- sessors. What gives to this venerable manuscript an additional importance is the fact that the whole of the Lamentationes jEREMiiE at the end are with the ancient musical notes {neumes), as generally used before Guido d' Arezzo, thus affording a proof that the present manuscript, written by diflerent hands, but in every part equally ancient, including the two notes, "Hartraannus tradidit," etc., and "Liber S.

5152 Napoli. Castaldo (Notar Antonino) Giornali

Manuscript 4^o. ^jec. xvii.

Prefixed is an account of the Embassy of Gio. Paolo Coraggio to Charles V, and at the end are other Giornali which are not by Castaldo, who was a Notary Public at Naples. His Giornali are veiy valuable as affording much curious information respecting the Emperor and the Neapolitan manners in tlie XVIth Century. His work has been printed, but as his publisher took bribes to suppress those details which might be an annoy- ance to certain wealthy Neapolitan families, the uncastrated MSS. are eagerly sought for in Italy.

5153 Napoli. Castaldo (Notar A.) Istoria di Napoli dal Principio clie

Carlo V ebbe Dominio del Eegno sino all' Anno 1571 Mantjsceipt 4^0. S^c. xvii.

These Memoirs, entering into the most minute details of public and private events during the reign of Charles V, contain more information respecting the manners and customs of the Neapolitans during the XVIth Century than any work written on the subject. They were printed in the Raccolta di Btorici Napoletani, but according to Giustiniani and Soria in an expurgated form, as the publisher negotiated with some wealthy Neapolitan families to suppress for a stipulated sum of money all facts derogatory to their ancestors. This MS. would therefore be important in restoring the muti- lated portions, and be most valuable for a new edition.

An unpublished Chronicle ending with 1513, written by an eye-witness "of many of the events he describes. It contains much information relating to tiie War of the Freneli in Italy, the Irruption of Charles VIII, and the English affairs of the period. " It mentions various meteorological phfenomena, the Disfida di Barletta, &c. The work is written in the Neapolitan dialect, of which the following under the date _ of _ 1496 is a specimen : " per li franciosi fo presa una terra nominata li liuninlaquale nee trouaro dui soldati napolitani, de re ferrando quali dicti franciosi li mpiccaro et si nee amazaro in quella piu homini et poy la sacchizaro^et mesero ad foco et dallo adui di fecero lo semele abono allebergo."

Grimaldi in the "Biographic Universelle", erroneously attributes this Istoria to that writer, and even then mentions only the first four volumes, evidently proving that he knew nothing of its having been continued by Ginesio Grimaldi. It is a very important work for the History of Southern Italy.

584 THE MISCELLANEOUS POETION OE

OEATIONES OBEDIENTIALES.

*^* The following Orations, on occasions of homage to the Pope, are extremely curious and interesting, as shelving the Papal Supremacy in former times over the various nations of the earth. These acknowledgments of the Spiritual Power of the Popes, are of the rarest occurrence, owing no doubt to the small number of copies printed, and to their probable destruction after perusal.

Of Rucellai, Erasmus says, " Although 5'ou would pronounce him another Sallust if you read liis History, yet, I never been able to get him to talk in Latin." Tiraboschi also considers him a model of writing history.

Venetiis per Paganinum de Paganinis, 1509 A very important though little-known work, containing much information respecting the History of Science, and more particularly as regards Leonardo da Vinci and his great worlds of art as a sculptor in Milan. It treats of Polyhedrons with algebraic signs of the diflerent powers, and also on Calligraphy, Avhich is illustrated with a magnificent Alphabet, designed to show their proportions, by Leonardo da Vinci, who also, as is distinctly stated by the author in his Dedication to the celebrated Gon- faloniere Pier Soderini, supplied the other plates, " Vtncii nostri Leonai'di Manibus Scalpta." The work is of the gi-eatest rai-ity, in a complete state, and M. Chasles was mistaken when he supposed that the two parts formed two distinct works printed in different years, as they both bear the same date, and were undoubtedly published together, as is clear from the directions at the end of Table of Contents, where we find mentioned, " Tractatus activse perscrutationis corporum . . . immediate post Archi- tecturam sequitur." Amongst the plates by Leonardo da Vinci one exhibits a marvellous human head, and three relate to architecture. Each letter of the beautiful alphabet is on a separate leaf. If not absolutely the first certainly this is one of the very earliest books on penmanship ever printed. A copy is marked 200 francs (£8) in the Tross Catalogue for 1860 (sixth Supplement, No. 891).

Second edition of a work, " described,'''' says Professor De Morgan, " hy Hutton, Montuda, Peacock, Libri, <&c. ; but it would yet require a volume of descrip- tion to do it justice. It is sometimes called the first work on Arithvietic printed ; but Calandri, Peter Borgo, three already mentioned in the Intro- duction, and perhaps more, take precedence. I3ut it is certainly the first printed on Algebra, and probably the first on hoolc-Jceeping ."" Sold for 71 francs in Paris (See Brunet, edition of 1860).

A scarce work, filled with singuLar and curious Paradoxes, but several of them so licentious and blasphemous that even the French translator Charles Estiemie, was compelled to omit them in the version he published in 1553. Landi's name does appear as the author, but we find his usual motto, " Suisnetroh tabedul " (reversed " ludebat Hortensius ") at end, as well as a notice from Paolo Mascranico, that the author " fu M. O. L. M. detto per Sopra Nome il Trliq," (Messer Ortensio Landi Milanese detto il Tran- quillo). Apostolo Zeno in his notes on Fontanini has proved that Landi was also the author of the " Confutatione." The Paradossi (1543), without the " Confutatione," sold for £3. 13s. in the first part of the present Catalogue. (See lot 4079.)

Original and extremely scarce editions of the celebrated tracts upon which rests the fame of Pascal as a geometrician. We have given here the general title as it is at the beginning, undonbtedly, however, printed subseqnenly in a different type from the various tracts ; the whole of them bemg with separate numeration, and even with new titles, some with the date of 1658, and some dated 1659. Another (cancelled) general title with the date of 1658 is in the volume.

5580 Pascal (B.) Traitez de I'Equilibre des Liqueurs et de la Pesanteur de

We find in this work the first experiments concernuig the application of the barometer to tlie mensuration of the height of mountains (see also "Beriguardi" in the present Catalogue). It is well known that although Pascal had received from Mersenne the intelligence of TorricelU's discovery respecting the barometer, he only published it as his own invention. In this work (m wliich all the pubbshed experunents of Pascal on the subject appear for the first time) an error is attributed to Galileo respecting the horreur dxi vide, which we believe to be a mere fabrication of Pascal, or his adherents.

Venetiis, 1593

A book of considerable rarity, and if we may credit Sorell, " adeo rams et earns nt ejus pretio bibliothecam quamdam parvara quis coemere possit." This work of Patrizj (who was a Copernican) is full of interesting scientific disquisitions, but requu-mg a whole volume to relate them. We must therefore beg to quote only what Patrizj says against the opinions of ancient Astronomers, including Copernicus, respecting " the Constitution of the Universe." " Quod ei (Coperuico) absurdum accidit quia putavit planetas, sicuti alia astra, orbibus infixas ferri, qua3 opinio mala omnia in Astronomiam, et in Physicam invexit." — {Patridus de Astrarum motu, p. 104).

folio. Forosempronii, per Octavianum Petrutium, 1513

This copy commences on a ii. The work, long kno^mi for its great rarity, is filled with singular researches for fixing Easter-day and the Death of Our Saviour. • The Gaignat copy sold for 139 francs. Lucas Paccioli da Borgo in liis Arithmetica speaks of Paul de Middleburg as " Astrologije Princeps." The cover is formed by leaves of veUum taken from a manu- script of the Xth Century.

5602 Pauli de Middelburgo, Episcopi Forosemproniensis, de Numero

Atomorum totius imiversi in Detestationem usurarise Pravitatis et in Augmentum Montis Pietatis Lucubratio 4<to. Momce, 1518

An exceedingly scarce and curious work, in which the recent establishment at Rome of Monti cli Pieta (public pawnbroking establishments for lending money to the needy on pledges) is highly praised, and the evils of usury strongly commented on. Neither Montucla, Lalande, nor Delambre notice tliis work by an author who is so well known for his labours in regard to the correction of the calendar, although we find therein the calculation of great numbers carried to an unprecedented extent. For instance, the author notes that the accumulated interest of a single ducat at the end of 3000 years cannot be expressed by less than a row of 341 numerical figures, and he also calculates how long it will take to accumulate interest enough to require the entire equinoctial line to be filled with small numbers to express the product.

John of Peckham, Archbishop of Canterbury from 1278 to 1293, was equally

celebrated as a theologian and mathematician. His treatise on perspective

Written in the Xlllth century. Archbishop Peckham's treatise seems to

have been the earliest work on perspective after the revival of literature,

and for centuries was considered a standard authority. The first edition

of it was printed in 1480, and is not nearly so scarce as the present, which

was unknown to Brunet.

This very curious work on perspective will be found most useful to artists,

for whose benefit it was written by the author, who was painter to the

Senate of Bologna. The third part"^is rare, and often deficient. See Cicog-

nai-a, who praises the work highly.

With the signature and numerous mitograjyh notes of the celebrated friend of the great Lorenzo de Medici, and of Leo X, the learned Angelo PoLiTlANO (the pupil of C. Landino, Andronico, Ficino, and Argyropulo), whose Stanze and Urfeo have placed him in the first rank of Italian poets, and whose Greek and Latin writings must ever endear his memory to all scholars. In this extraordinary work the Cardinal d'Ailly maintains that the whole of the most remarkable events connected with the Christian Religion could have been and are predicted by astrology.

Manusceipt on papee, with nine curious illuminations of the occu- pations for each month {excepting June, November and December), twelve coloured drawings of the signs of the Zodiac, and twelve others of the same in ink

in the original binding, oak boards, covered with leather, protected by brass corners, bosses and clasps 4^o. S^c. xv (1471)

A very curious and, for the history of Astronomy, important work, as the Latin Calendar cum tabulis for 1439 is one of the earliest in existence. This Nicholas Pfaldorff must have been an astronomer of some note, although his name appears to have escaped Kiistner, Lalande, Montucla, Delambre, and other special writers on the subject. The German Calendar which, as well as the Latin, is highly interesting to the Liturgical student for the names of the Saints exhibited, is also valuable for the artistic skill dis- played in the illuminations. Each month is introduced by a quatrain, written like prose, of which that for January may serve as an example: —

Jener pin ich genantt

Trinken und essen ist mir wol bekant

In disem monad ist nit gut

Von dem menschen lassenn plut.

The Elucidarius was one of the most popular works in the German lan- guage, printed at least a dozen times between 1479 and 1514, and is still a favourite Volksbitch, of which the author, or rather translator, has hitherto been totally unknown. For the philologist this Manuscript possesses no mean interest, as it exhibits an early specimen of the pure Saxon dialect adopted subsequently by Luther for his version of the Bible, and now called Hoch- Teutsch, to distinguish it from the Piatt or Low-German.

A panegyric on the husband of Mary Queen of England. The glossing over the defeat of tlie Armada, and the wish, " ut h;ec tanta Insula (Britannia) sponte nuUius coacta imperio Apostolicse Sedi jampridem se ipsa subjecerit," is finely executed by Cardinal Colonna, who also praises the lung's piety in converting the Indians of America.

See also Monte Regio in tlie present Catalogue. It is well kno^ni that Monte Regio died at Rome in 1475, and therefore this work, which is supposed to be the first of those which were issued from the press of Regiomontanus, must be some years earlier.

6076 Queva (D. Alfonso della) Eelatione delle Cose di Venetia I'Anno 1618 A MOST iMPOETANT Manxtsckipt 4^0. SiEC. xvii (1618)

Don Alfonso della Queva (perhaps better known as the Marquis de Bedmar) was the Spanish Ambassador at Venice, who in 1G18 conspired with Don Pedro de Toledo, Governor of Milan, and the Duke of Ossuna, Vice-Roy of Naples, to overturn the Republic he was accredited to. This con- spiracy, so celebrated by St. Real's graphic description, later historians have attempted to decry as imaginary, because the originator, the wily Bedmar, was allowed to escape to INIilan, and lost nothing of favour with the Spanish King, who even exerted himself in procuring for his protege a Cardinal's Hat from Pope Gregory XV, and sent him to govei-n the Low Countries. Policy, not to involve the Republic in a war with Spain, seems to have guided the Senate in screening the guilty Ambassador, and his own account of a transaction, hitherto shrouded in mystery, is therefore most interesting and well deserving of publication.

4ito. Friburgi, per Jo. Schottum, 1503 This encyclopaedia of human knowledge in the XVth century is extremely curious, and is divided into twelve books, thus : — I. Grammaticte Rudi- menta; II. Dialecticai Principia ; III. Rhetoricae Partes ; IV. Arithmetica; V. Musica; VI. Geometria; VII. Astronomia (including Cosmography, Astrology, Necromancy, Pyromancy, Geomancy, &c.) ; VIII. Natural Philosophy ; IX. De Origrne Rerum Natm-alium ; X. and XI. De Potentiis Animse (including descriptions of Hell, Pui-gatory and Limbo) ; and XII. De Principiis Philosophiae Moralis. Respecting this celebrated work, and the present edition, which, by Dr. Kloss was considered to be the first, see a long account in the admkable work of Prof. De Morgan on Arithmetical Books.

6171 Eeisch (Gr.) Margarita Philosophica, numerous curious woodcuts with

4ito. Argentines, J. Schottus, 1504 This rare and curious book may be regarded as the cyclopfedia of scientific knowledge of its time, and must have been highly popular if we regard the number of editions issued. " If," says Professor De Morgan, " the number were sufficient of those who wish to take their notions of liberal education in Europe at the time immediately preceding the Refonnation from original sources, and not from the reports of others, a reprint of the Margarita Philosophica would be made. The diversity of the matters which it treats (Granunar. Arithmetic, Music, Geometry, Astronomy, Natural Philosophy, Metaphysics, Moral Philosophy, &c.) and the largeness of its circulation, stamp it as the best book for such a purpose."

As Professor De Morgan merely mserts the name of Renaldini in his Index, without giving the title of the work, it shows that he never was able to see this scarce Ars Analytica. The Commercium Epistolicum, containing much astronomical matter, was unknown to Lalande. Both the Paralipomena and Commercium contain numerous problems rcsjaecting the theory of numbers. Renaldini was one of the members of the celebrated Accademia del Cimento, and he was supposed to be the tirst who assigned invariable limits to the thermometer. See, however, Eschinardi in the present Catalogue.

No work can be better than this for leading to the knowledge of Italian science about the end of the XVIth Century.

Custodis, including those of Henry VI of England and James II of Scotland, both unknown to Bromley very rare ' folio. Augspurg, 1600

The adventures of this Knight-Errant are as interesting as any romance of chivahy. George of Ehingen informs us that James II, king of Scotland, was his wife's brother ; and the portraits in this work are said by Custodis to be exact copies from originals painted by command of Ehingen for him- self, whilst visiting at the courts of the Emperor Frederic, Charles Vll of France, Henry VI of England, Ladislaus of Bohemia, Henry IV of Castile, Alphonso of Portugal, John of Navarre, Rene of Sicily, James II of Scotland, and John of Cyprus. The travels of this Knight-Errant (although generally without date to guide u,s) seem to have commenced in 1454 and ended in 1457. He has preiixed a genealogy of his family, from which it appears he Avas one of nineteen children, and that in his father's castle resided four other noblemen all with similar large families, the chil- dren of the five together amounting to 100, all of whom Sir George sundved. This work is so rare that it was reprinted at Stuttgard in 1842 by the Societe des Bibliophiles.

A very curious work, unknown to Dodd and Wood. The author asserts that Peter Martyr m Oxford sent to Parliament to know how he should expound " Hoc est coi-pus meum," and asks, " Is there any thing believed to this day any further then settled by Parhament ? . . . Nay that settle- ment of Religion is solely to be had from civil Power?" This hit at Hobbes he winds up with, " Upon which supposition wee might come at last to worsliip a Fart insteed of God." He affii-ras the Nag's Head Ordi- nation, and asserts " All that now remaines of your rehgion within the whole Dominion of this Nation by authority is that among the Articles upon the surrender of Virginia, the 11 Article is, " That the use of the Common Prayer Book be permitted there for one yeare ensuing, &c." There is a break in the pagination from 64 to 73, but nothing is wantmg and the catchword reads.

This is considered the earliest Pageant ever printed, and is in prose mixed with verse, written in Italian and occasionally m Latin, including the Epi- thalamium by Antonio Constantio da Fano, Poeta Laureate. The work, consisting of 42 leaves, commences on the reverse of A 1 (the obverse being blank), with " In questo picolo libretto se contiene le admirande magnificentie e stupendissimi Aparati de le foeUce noze celebrate de lo Ilhistre segnor di pesaro Constantio ssforza per madama Camilla suo sposa, e neza de la sacra maiesta del Re Ferdinando." This leaf was deficient in the Crevenna Copy, which has led Panzer and Hain to give the title as above. Orlandi and Maittaire ascribe the authorship to the poet Atanagi, who has wi-itten the description of the feast con amore. Amongst the dishes (including dainties in Vasi di Majolica) peacocks with outspread tails are distinctly enumerated, and every imaginable delicacy in pastry and con- fectionary seems to have rendered the bancpiet unique of its kind.

This important medical cyclopsedia, containing much scientific information on a great variety of subjects, is dedicated to Robert King of Sicily, who died in 1343. It afibrds a just idea of the predominance at that time of Arabian science, as nearly all the words have theh Arabic names attached. The author appears to have possessed a botanic garden, for in chapter cxcvii he distinctly asserts, under the word Colcasia, " ego ipsam habeo Salemi in Viridario meo." In chapter cccxciv he describes an early attempt of lithotripsy.

The laws agamst bad women are ciu-ious. They are prohibited from wearing jewellery under penalty of having it confiscated. They are also, unless they bear a badge on the right arm, to be subject to whipping. During the Holy Week and Easter the Jews were forbidden to quit the Hebrew quarter, called Judtea, and compelled at all times to wear a distinguishing garment. The laws (in French) respecting bakers are very interesting, the limitation of credit to their customers being six months, beyond which they cannot recover.

The Laws against the Jews for having public schools, and against those "who " conoscono carnalmente le Christiane," were most severe. The first of these Statuti (in Italian) is of the year 1242. The title is in Latin, but, with a few exceptions, the whole of the laws are in Italian, and some even in the Venetian dialect.

A work of considerable rarity, the second part of which has a dedication to

the Princess Elizabeth, in which the author records that several of these

designs were made for the Prince of Wales, whilst in his service, and were

destined to ornament his Palace at Richmond. The third part, treating on

the Construction of Organs, is most remarkable considering the date at

which it was written. This work is celebrated in the history of the Steam

Engine.

A very curious and scarce Guide du Voyageur and Post-Office Directory, compiled by order of Giovanni da I'llerba, Master of the Couriers for Genoa, who dedicates it to Cardinal San Giorgio. This is probably the first Posting-Book issued, and when we consider the fate of such pubHca- tions our only surprise is not its rarity but that even a single copy should be found at the end of three centuries. The distances of places in Italy, Spain and France (including accounts of the principal cities) are recorded. Next is a List of the different Fahs, in which we find England at that time had but one, commencing 23 August and lasting eight days.

An account of this extremely rare work will be found m Dr. Smith's Tour in Italy.

The Favole III and IV of the Notte quinta are written in the DIALFXTS of Bergamo and Tre^dso. We note as a curious fact that in Favola III of the Notte nana, Francesco Sforza, the son of " Lodovico il Moro Duca di J\Iilano," is described as defending himself from several assassins by means of a sort of Revolver or many-barelled gun.

*^* This copy of a celebrated work contains at the end a leaf of " Corrigenda et Addenda," not in the preceding. The apparently two editions, with the dates of 1715 and 1717, are in fact the same, a new title only with the second date having been substituted, and the Corrigenda added at the end. It is well known that the celebrated theorem of Taylor was for a long while neglected, and that D'Alembert gave it as a new invention several years afterwards.

This is a most extraordinary work, apparently totally unknown to all biblio- graphers as we find no mention either of it, or even of the author, in Tiraboschi, Zeno, Foscarini, jNIontucla, Brunet, &c. &c. Under the form of an arithmetrical puzzle or labyrinth, the work contains a solution of one of the most complicated problems, both of the theory of numbers and geometry of position, which even to write in algebraic signs would give some difficulty. The author, a Venetian Noble, and undoubtedly a man of great mathematical genius, dedicates this his induMnosa. fatica to the Doge Giovanni Bembo, a most fitting patron, as the labyrinth of letters, read anyway from the centre, gives in Venetian " Zua:n'e Bembo Dose per Meriti." The entire work consists of 27 leaves, namely, 3 printed, (including the title in black and red ink, dedication, and dichiaratione), 2 blank, and 22 for the Figures, which are in red ink on both sides, with exception of the first and last, which are worked on one side only. The whole of these figures are woodcuts with xylographic inscriptions.

Venetiis in ^dihus Aldi Manutii Bomani, 1497 First edition of the first Greek Grammar, written in the Latin language, and of the greatest rarity, having been bought up on its appearance with such avidity by scholars, that Erasmus in one of his letters, written in 1499, informs us that even then he found it impossible to procure a single copy. Renouard thus notices this edition, " Ce livre est estremement rare," and this is borne out by the fact of a copy in Sir Mark Sykes's sale having produced £12. 15s. The real name of the author, who Avas tutor to Leo X, was Urbano dalle Fosse. This copy is perfectly bound and com- plete, and is one of those in which at the end of the fourth page has the Ave Maria in Greek (see Brunei).

fine large copy, old red morocco, gaufre edges, icith the arms of the Dauphin at corners and on, back folio. Venetiis, Aldus, 1501

A most splendid specimen of typography, and one of the finest pro- ductions of the Aldine press. The capital letters are filled in by hand, and are elegant specimens of Arabesque ornamentation. At the com- mencement of each volume is a coat of arms emblazoned in gold and colours. The work commences with " De Arithmetica Libri III," and then proceeds with music, geometry, astrology, physics, medicine, gi-ammar, poetics, rhetoric, moral philosophy, &c. Bee Professor De Morgan's Arithmetical Boohs, and ^i. Libri's Histoire des Sciences Mathematiques en Itodie. As it would require a volume to describe this immense scientific and literary Cyclopaedia we must here content ourselves with pointing out only a few tilings important for the history of the sciences. In the Arithmetic, Valla speaking of the cypher says : " Quam voce barbara tziphran vocant Indi (Indicse siquidem omnes figiu'ffi esse perhibentur)." In the Mechanics the treatise de Spiritalibus Machinis is very curious. In one of them steam is employed to get motion according to the following rubric : " Lebete sub sestuante globulum ad corodacam moneri . . . fervente lebete vaporem ... in spha?rum incidentem." The first initial letters of the work is splendidly emblazoned in gold and colours, with the arms of an ancient possessor, and the motto iay espoir in gothic letters.

This copy belonged formerly to the Earl of Northumberland, usually called " The Wizard," and has" his crest surrounded by the Garter, stamped in gold on sides. The rarity of Vieta's works was caused by his having printed only a few copies at his own expense for presents to such of his contemporaries as took a delight in mathematics. This is the rarest of all his publications, and a copy has been sold for six guineas (see Brunet), The present magnificent copy, which is on LARGE paper, contains the Canon Triangulorum, and the Liber Sinrjularis, and perfectly agrees with the description given by Brunet. The only difference is that in the present copy the back of the title is blank, instead of having the list of con- tents as stated by Brunet, and that sheet *** m this copy is without any signature.

Best edition of thi.s ancient poet, who was bom at Paris in 1431. He was

a notorious thief, and narrowly escaped being hanged for his crunes,

Rabelais in his Pantagruel informs us that he was subsequently in England,

the insight they afford of the manners and customs of his time, several of

them being in the Jarcjon cV Argot or Thieves -Language.

Villon is the Rabelais of poets, and even his " Ballade pour prier Nostre-

are curious specimens of flash dialect.

folio. Co7no, Gotardo da Bonte, 1521 Amongst the woodcuts are exhibited some curious representations of Milan Cathedral as a specimen of German (Gothic) Architecture, an ancient sun-dial, antique baths, the sphere, motive powers (including a Ship moved BY Paddles), instruments used in architectiu-e, &c. The Commentary is valuable to the mathematician (see many curious remarks respecting arith- metic), and also to the painter and sculptor, as it gives rules for colouring and dii-ections for studying symmetry of proportion, with large woodcuts of the human body, and specially mentions Michele Angelo and other eminent artists. The first mention of the camera obscura, commonly attributed to Porta, is also to be found herein. Cesariano specially men- tions (on reverse of folio CLiv) "UMagnifico Domino Augustino Gallo Novo Comense & Domino Aloysio Pirouano Mediolauense Arithmetico excellentissimo," as the principal authors of the present impression, and gives the names of the assistant translators also (see reverse of fol. lxxxxiii, where Bono Maiu-o is declared to be " Correct ore di questa mia translata Opera." For the history of art and literature this commentary is also higlily important, as nearly every page lias allusions to and mention of names pf men eminent in every brancli of science. On folio cxix is a poera_(in Terzine) on Graphilogia. From tlie Coloplion we learn that Cesariano left Conio before the work was completed, no doubt disgusted

78G THE MISCELLANEOUS PORTION OF

with his patrons and publishers, who had robbed him of his labour, and of his subsequent career wo only know that ruined by this speculation he died after suffering great misery. A very long and hiteresting account of Cesariano (taken chiefly from facts mentioned in the notes to this version of Vitruvius) will be found in the history of Gothic Architecture, by J. S. Hawkins, who considered the engraving of Milan Cathedral so important to the suliject of Gothic Architecture (it being the earliest known) that he at one time determined to have it re-engi-aved in facsimile, and published with a letter-press explanation. This project was abandoned when he found that the engravuig was not a separate publication, but only a portion of the translation of Vitruvius, and he contented himself with giving copies on a reduced scale in his work on the History of Gothic Architecture. Mr. Hawkms informs us that after all endeavours to procure a copy of the Vitruvio, or even a sight of it in London, had failed, he determiued to visit Oxford, but accidentally obtained a copy for himself just as he was pre- paring to do so. Mr. Hawkins goes on to observe, " The volume is so scarce that I at present know of no more than two copies, besides my own, existing in this country, and one of these two is in the Bodleian Library."

For an account of this rare hoolc see Bayle's very curious article on Zabarella in his Dictionary. The work " de Inventione a3terni Motoris " (pages 128-13G of this volume) was to sustain the impossibility of pro\-ing the immortality of the soul from the principles of Aristotle, for it is only on admitting the eternity of motion that we are able to conclude the existence of a prime Mover, two propositions which caused him to be accused before the Inquisition as an Atheist by his enemies, whom however he defeated by declaring that as a Christian he admitted as truths what could not be proved by philosophy. The inquiries of the author on the acceleration of the movement of falling bodies contained in the liber jn-iimis of the present work deserve attention.

A very rare work on machinery, displaying the wonderful inventions of the author, including those for various mills, copper-plate and printing presses, a smoke-jack for roasting, &c. Amongst the rest is a spinning-jenny, identical with the one patented upwards of a century later in England, the honour of inventing which certainly belongs to the ingenious Italian, whose countrymen seem to have given themselves little trouble to claim justice to Zonca. Weiss, in the Biographic Universelle, mentions the editions of 1607 and 1621, and then i-emarks, " On cite encore des Editions de 1653 et de 1656 ; mais ce volume ne serait pas aussi rare s'il en existait tant de reimpressions," evidently doubting the existence of this edition of 1656.
