Footnotes

  • 1. On the back of the volume is the usual modern description in Italian: ‘Pio ii. 1462. Anno 4. Lib. i.’ A contemporary fly leaf has, in different contemporary hands, the description: ‘Primus de prebendis vacantibus, de beneficiis vacantibus, de regularibus et de tabellionatus officio anno iiii. domini nostri domini Pii pape ii,’ and the order: ‘R(ecipe) Pe., P. [i.e. P. de Varris].’ On the back of the same flyleaf is Mgr. Wenzel's ‘An. 4. to. xi.’ A similar contemporary description: ‘Primus …,’ occurs as usual on the bottom edge of the volume. The text extends from f. i. to f. ccxxiiii., a few of which are blank.
  • 2. ut tibi (recte tu) in piis et ecclesiasticis causis duntaxat idem officium prudenter and fideliter ubilibet exequaris. A small cross in the margin draws attention to the ‘tibi,’ which, however, is not corrected.
