De Sacris Utriusq; Instrumenti Libris in Vulgare Eloquium minime vertendis, rudiq; plebi haud quaquam in vulgandis, dialogus inter Pantartcheum et Neoterum. Together with De Mobilibus Ecclesiae Praeceptionibus. Together with De Confessione Auriculari Tractatus (In three books, with an introduction, De Monastico Instituto Liber Unus; De Huivsce Seculi Caecitate, Ac Circumventione)
Edition: First Thus
Condition: Overall this work is in excellent condition for its age. The early boards are a little rubbed, and have a light scratch to the rear board, but overall are in very good shape. The spine is nicely matched, but almost brand new. Unusually, perhaps because of the composite nature of the work, the spine has 6 raised bands, with a gilt decoration to each panel, but no titles to it. Inside, the inside paper is a little chipped, and torn to the boards, but this has been pasted down (presumably when re-backed). The front and rear end papers are a touch nicked and marked - but not badly. The rest of the book is very tidy. There is a small amount of worm damage to the corner of the first few pages. Not affecting text. The pages are otherwise clean. Throughout the text there are quite a few annotations and marginalia in ink. These (including underlining) seem to be contemporary with the work, and are seemingly in Greek and Latin (there are a few later annotations in English in pencil). These don't affect the text.
