¶ Early prize binding, with the arms of Amsterdam on both sides in triple fillets, two gold and one blind. (Printed prize tipped in, dated 1647, and signed by the rector, Cornelius Sladus; name of beneficiary erased).
¶ "Elegantly printed by Plantin: with a prettily engraved portrait [by Corn.Galle I after Gijsbert van Veen] of Torrentius who was Bishop of Antwerp. ... It seems that Torrentius had access to many MSS.at Rome, among the most valuable of which was the Codex Laurentianus; but as Torrentius did not live to give the finishing corrections to his edition, the readings of these MSS. are not embodied in the volume. [..] to the "Ars Poetica" the commentary of Nannius is subjoined." (Dibdin II/97). "Er (Torrentius) besserte auch den Text nach Conjecturen.
