lows intermittently through the rest of this work. See Cicero, de Inven- tione, Bk. II, Ch. xl. The illustration that follows is translated from Ch. li of the same work.

84 : 14 f. The two illustrations which follow seem to be furnished by Cox independently.

. 85 : 27 f. A similar illustration with somewhat different terms is recited by Cicero, Ch. xl.

86 130-32. Translation from M. I. See supra p. 102. The illustration which follows is drawn from Cicero, Ch. 1.

87 : 19-21. Translation from M. I. See supra p. 102.

87 : 18. " He shulde nat have suffred of convenient," z. <?., properly, justly.

87 : 34. Cox probably means only that his work, like the de Inventione of Cicero, covers only the one division of Rhetoric concerned with inven- tion, although he may also intend here to record his obligations in the last part of his own work to Cicero's work.

88:2. Similarly Melanchthon (de Rhetorica, C viii a) refers readers who may desire a more extended treatment of the subject to Trapezuntius. Trapezuntius presents little more than a paraphrase of Hermogenes. The latter was a Greek rhetorician of the time of Marcus Aurelius who wrote five works covering the field of rhetoric. On the Rhetoric of Trapezun- tius cf. Voigt, Wiederbelebung des classischen Alterthums (Berlin, 1893) Vol. II, 443-

88 : 9. Justinian, Institutiones, Liber Primus, I De iustitia et iure : .... "si statim ab initio rudem adhuc et infirmum animum studiosi mul- titudine ac varietate rerum oneravimus, duorum alterum aut desertorem studiorem efficiemus aut cum magno labore eius, ssepe etiam cum diffi- dentia" .... etc.

88:19. Cox probably refers to Aristotle's Metaphysics, 993 B 13-15 : "It is just to be grateful, not only to those whose opinions we share, but also to more superficial thinkers, for these too have contributed something. For they have helped our development." And see what follows.

In B the colophon reads as follows :

" Imprinted at London in Fletestrete by saynt Dunstones chyrche / at the sygne of the George / by me Robert Redman. The yere of our lorde god a thousande/fyue hundred and two and thyrty. Cum priuilegio."

Beneath there is a woodcut of architectural scrolls. F viii recto is blank. F viii verso contains a woodcut representing two nude figures holding a shield on which appears the monogram of Robert Redman, with his name below. The shield is surmounted by a helmet with scrolls.
