Nürmberg, 1570 VERY RARE. These Articles and Injunctions were formed, in a great measure, upon the canons of the Council of Cologne, promulgated by Herman de Wida, "the good Archbishop," and which had been drawn up by Martin Bucer. Melancthon and Brentius prepared them by the desire of the elder Wolfgang, of Bavaria, and they were first issued at Deuxponts (Zweibrücken) in 1557, and at Neuberg in 1560; and

| finally settled and published in 1570 by his son. The portions of Scripture are taken from Luther's version, and the Litany, Creed, and Communion Service are the same as those still in use in the Lutheran Church. This volume, which is elegantly printed in red and black, with musical notes, is a valuable relic of a branch of the Lutheran Church, which no longer exists.

7227 FAZIO DEGLI UBERTI, DITTA MUNDI, sq. 8vo. an Italian Manuscript of the Fourteenth Century, in a semi-Gothic character, with three Drawings, 176 pp. bound in brown morocco, by Bedford, £21.

A very precious Manuscript, probably contemporaneous with the author of this famous geographical poem. It contains about half the work, beginning with the third chapter of Book I, and leaves off in the seventh of Book IV. Copies of the book are very rare, especially when so old as the present one; and it is well

known that the collation of MSS. is more necessary in the case of the Ditta Mundi than in most other works, in order to remedy the gross and innumerable corruptions of the printed text. A comparison of this Codex with the edition of 1501 shows to a great extent the advantage of the former over the latter.
