First printed ed.
Printed without a t.p. or colophon or any preliminary leaves. Aldus, the Elder, had announced a Latin translation of this in the Index (prelim. leaf 2) of his publication of Gregorius Nazianzenus' Carmina, 1504, which was to be a continuation of Gregory's Historia evangelii secundum Joannem, but it was never executed. Copies of this Greek text had been issued as a supplement to the Gregorius. The size of the page is smaller than that of the Gregorius.
Renouard (p. 261) says this is extremely rare.
