The reason why Corallus was able to work so quickly is that he printed from the identical type originally set up for the undated folio edition (IB. 30218 above), here made up afresh in pages of 27 lines each. The last line of every fourth page in the present issue thus coincides with that of every third page in the folio edition but one line (Aut monstrare lyra ... alumno) has dropped out at the head of 3°, while the last line on the same page (Nam superant tua uota .. . multum) exactly duplicates the first on 4°.

The partners then removed to Cremona, where they continued to print until August, 1493 (see p. 956). When De Misintis is next heard of he is once more at Brescia, and he prints there alone from 15 July, 1494, until 1502. His press was very active in 1495-7 but no book dated in 1498 is on record. TYPES (see Plate LXXXVI*): 102 R. (P. I), rather narrow text type, with single Qu. As Britannici 102 R. [P. 21, but a somewhat heavy C. the upper horn longer than the lower, which is slightly turned up at the tip, occurs frequently. Greek o used as is sometimes admixed. In use in 1492 (also at Cremona) and from 1496 onwards. For reproduction see Britannici 102 R. [P. 21, plate LXXXIV 80 R. (P. 2), small clear text (and commentary) type, as De Boninis 81 R. [P. 4), with a few additional sorts and no doubt the same material. Single Qu in three forms, one that used by De Boninis, the other two those of Britannici 77 R. (P. 3). P is as a rule correctly alined. Both e and æ are used for the diphthong. 2 is not very frequent. Large d, which is that proper to 102 R. [P. 1). One double, one short single, and at least two long steep single hyphens. Apparently first used by De Misintis at Cremona in 1492 (see p. 956) and in use at Brescia in 1494-6. For reproduction seé De Boninis 81 R. [P. 41, plate LXXXIIIX 96 G. P. 5), black text and heading type in the Venetian style, the face resembling Jenson 106 G. IP. 21 or Torresanus 105 G. P. 1), and perhaps more closely A. de Siliprandis 104 G. (P. 11, and thus of the same class as De Boninis 104 G. P. 71 (1490), but not the same. Large well-rounded o leaning to right is distinctive. Long steep single hyphen. The same material as Britannici 95 G. [P. 71 (1490, etc.), but with a full complement o capitals. Apparently first used by De Misintis at Cremona (95 G. [Haebler 2*1, p. 956) and in use at Brescia in 1495-7. 110 R. (P. 4), clear text type, with single Qu, as De Boninis 111 R. (P. 31 and Britannici 110 R. [P. 111. and no doubt the same material.

In use in 1495, 1497. Not reproduced 64 G. P. 6), small text type on narrow set, as Britannici 64 G.

P. 7), very small text type with mixed capitals, as Britannici 54 G. [P. 91, and no doubt the same material. No C. In use in 1496, 1497. Not reproduced. 105 G. P. 8), plain title type in the Milanese style. Here found only in the undated Saxus, Capitolo di predestinazione (IA. 31270), which is perhaps later than 1500 ; also occurring in the same authors Agislariorum gentis origo printed by De Misintis in 1502. Measurement approximate. * * The title of Baptista Mantuanus, De patientia, 1497 (Proctor t7o41, Gesamtkatalog 3g04), appears to be printed with a fount indistinguishable from Britannici 160 G3, between which and type 165 G. P. 81 some con- fusion has occurred. Small Greek, lower case only, neat, with accents and breathings, apparently as De Boninis 81 Gk. Shafted y is common, and curl-headed 8 ocurs as well as trangular. Used with 80 R. (P. a) in 1494 and with 110 R. P. 4 in 1495. Distinguished as Gk“. Not reproduced. Large Greek, lower case only, with remains of accents, no doubt derived from the Britannici, whose 102 Ck. appears to be the same. For the most part indistinguishable from De Paltasichis (Venice) 109 Gk, but with characteristic large 6, probably made of 9. Shafted y is normal. Used with 102 R. fP. 1 in 1496, 1497. 1499. Distinguished as Gk6. CAPTTALS.

The first majuscule alphabet in the above collation is printed with type 80 G., the second with type 102 R. It is noteworthy that (1) not only is type 80 G., employed here only by Achates, closely connected with the material of G. di Pietro at Venice, but the contrast of massed roman capitals with Gothic, also lound here only in the work of Achates, is a practice of Di Pietro at this time (cf. the 1475 Augustinus, IB. 19923, and the 1476 Abano, 1C. 19928, vol. v, p. 201), (2) both the type and one of the water- marks (a small irregular rosette) are identical with those, of the Crudeltà del Turco a quegli di Caffa, s.n., after June, 1475, here assigned to Schindeleyp at Trent (vol. iii, p. 805, IA. 51123), wllich tract is therefore possibly connected rather with Achates.

As the small roman type used in it otherwise occurs only at Reggio (see note on type 83 R. above), it is perhaps the first production of Berto¬ chus at Reggio after his return thither from Modena; the watermark, however, apparently representing three pillars set side by side, is identical with that of the Capella of May, 1500 (IB. 32338), and thus points rather to Modena.
