An edition revised and expanded by Vincent of Haarlem, who incorporated additions drawn from manuscripts that were absent from the earlier Venetian printing.

A new Parisian edition, adorned with a title page set within an architectural frame engraved on wood, bearing Jean Petit’s printer’s mark. Printed in two columns, with ornate initials.
