Summary
Bibliographic description
cclxxxix leaves ; 8vo. Running number: 6909. Wanting final blank leaf. Provenance: manuscript initial on front fly-leaf: "M." [i.e. catalogue code of John Mitchell (ca. 1685-1751), librarian to Sir Richard Ellys (1682-1742)]; with Mitchell's manuscript code at foot of leaf: "ε'." [i.e. epsilon' = Greek number 5]. Seventeenth-century manuscript inscriptions in ink on title page and on leaf A3r: "expurgado conforme al catalogo de 1632a" and "esta expurgado y con basto trabajo conforme al catalogo de 1632a. [signed] D Jorge de la Peña". Presumably the book was checked by the censor Jorge de la Peña against the Inquisition's index of prohibited books printed at Seville in 1632 and the offending passages of text were (or had already been) expurgated. Many passages of text expurgated in black ink (sixteenth or seventeenth-century); with underlining of text and occasional marginal annotations. Very faint (washed-out?) manuscript inscription on leaf NN9v. Binding: seventeenth-century full calf (very worn, water-stained); sewn onto five supports; rebacked in calf with gold-tooled panels and remnants of title label from original spine retained; red sprinkled bookblock edges.
