Folio, 90 leaves, printed in double columns, 60 lines (some- times 61) to the column; in the same type as the Ludolphus de Suchen. Bound up in one volume with the Hrabanus Maurus described among the R-books infra (Strassburg, Eggesteyn, about 1472-3) Described by Hain under No. 2870, but in his copy the blank leaf eho been cut away and the three leaves of table transferred to the end. The paper-mark is the eight-petalled rose. Described by Klemm as having been printed about 1470. Fol.1a, column 1: Incipit prolog’ in vita Ihesu xpi descri | pta jux serié quatuor euangelior’ a quo- | da magne deuocois ac religiositatis pa | tre sacri ordis carthus. monacho profes | so dom’ motis beate marie virginis ppe | inclitam ciuitateé Argentinensem.. Sol. 3906, column 2: . . Et sic est finis . . . Impressu Anno dni. 1.4.7.4. Fol. 391a: Rubrice capitulorum ... fol. 892a: Incipit registrum euangeliorum .. This register ends on 8936. blank 7 Large folio, a remarkably jine copy, with numerous uncut leaves, in the original boards covered with stamped leather This volume consists of 394 printed leaves, double columns, fifty- five lines to the column, besides one blank leaf at the end. The type is identical with that used in the glosses of the Gratian and the Clement of 1471. The paper-mark is usually the eight-petalled rose, but sometimes also a marguerite, a French princely crown, and a Roman D with a rod running up and down through the perpendicular arm. The leaf of Register of quires is extraordinarily rare, having always been detached from its corresponding leaf in the final sheet. This final sheet, although registered as one of ten leaves, had really twelve,—the first leaf being united with the blank at the end, the second leaf united with the leaf of Register, but being itself left blank, and therefore always cut out to the manifest peril of the Register. exposito sup | canonem misse. | [T']E igit’ clemétissime 3 B stchitye, eek
