The words here printed in Italics are in rubric in the original. Then
follows on the title-page a table of contents of the volume, with
reference to the folio in which each piece is to be found.
Then follows a small square woodcut, representing SS. Peter and Paul
holding the sacred handkerchief with the face of Christ impressed upon
it; and on each side of this is the date in rubric, thus,
+--------+
| |
M. CCCCC. | | XXIII.

+--------+
The whole is surrounded with a framework formed of various woodcut
ornaments. One of these (on the left) represents Judas betraying our
Lord with a kiss; the other (on the right) our Lord bearing His cross.
On the reverse of the title is a dedicatory letter from Iodocus Badius
Ascensius to Franciscus de Roban, Archbishop of Lyons.
Then follows Tabula Alphabetica, occupying four pages.
Then (on fol. A. iiij) a letter, "Aug. Mapheo rer[=u] Ro. Thesaur.
P[=o]p. letus. S." beginning "Marcus Valerius probus unice vetustatis
amator."
