In the background is seen Joseph of Arimathea begging Christ's body of Pilate. There are also 74 ornamental versal letters (H.22 m.) printed from 20 blocks, and the device of the printer (H. 78 m.

23. Pontificalis liber. Lugduni. Per magistrum Ioannem Moilin, alias de Cambray, expensis Ludovici Martini. 1511, 8 Maii. Folio.

The fourth edition of the Pontifical, published by order of
Innocent VIII., who intrusted the editing of it to Augustus
Piccolomini, Bishop of Pienza and Montalcino. He based his
work chiefly on the MS. Pontifical of William Duranti, Bishop of
Mende, on whom, in the prefatory epistle, he pronounces a well-
deserved eulogium. Piccolomini was aided in his work by John
Burckard, provost of the church of Haslach, in the diocese of
Strassburg, and master of the Papal ceremonies.

The volume contains 228 ff., printed in red and black from type
of three founts, in two columns of 37 lines each (Comp., 262 m.),
with red initial letters of 2 lines and Latin musical notation on a
staff of 4 red lines-9 staves to the full column.
With running
title, and with catchwords to each leaf. There are thirty-seven
quires, bearing the signatures + a (a a ij a iij)6–z6 Aб–Kб L3 M3 No,
preceded by Ponti. or Pontifi. The leaves are numbered, com-
mencing from the third: Folio. i.-ccxxv, the last leaf being
without a number.

The first known edition of the Agram Missal. Some Hungarian writers cite an edition of 1509, but, as the impression of this is stated on the title-page to have been commenced in 1509, I think this is the book referred to.

The volume is composed of six parts, and contains 332 (20, 26, 140, 62, 20 and 64) ff., printed in red and black from type of seven founts, in two columns of 41 lines each (Comp., 282 m.) or 20 long lines to the full page, with musical notation on a staff of 4 red lines -II staves to the full column. With running title, but without any catchwords. There are in all 43 quires signed + ** é A1o c D10 a-q r s t8-z A B C D E F and G-0 numbered commencing with a ij, ij-cclxxxv, the last leaf being without any number.
