Imprint from colophon (v. 1). Colophon, v. 2: ... nel mese di ottobre MDLI.
Originally issued with both vols. dated MDLI on t.p. and in colophon; reissued with date on t.p. changed to MDLII by the addition of another digit "I" before the final digit; reissued later in 1552, with inital gathering of v. 2 entirely reset, with new dedication to Lodovico Becatelli. In the new setting of the t.p., the printer's mark is within a border of rules; the printer's mark in the original setting is without the border.
