Quarto. Sign. *, **, a-k^8, l^4, m-z, A-G^8, H^{10}. 16 unnumbered
preliminary leaves, containing preface by Aldus addressed to Andrea
Navagero and alphabetical index (the blank last leaf wanting in
this copy); 245 numbered leaves of text and final blank leaf with
anchor. Sign. * and ** have eight leaves each, not ten as stated in
the register on p. 245. Italic letter, 39 lines to the page, three-

first form. Renouard, p. 93.
