Naturally both copies belonged to Rosenwald. <br/><br/>¶ The title of the present work "The 19th Book - Tesoro de Poveri" comes from the fact that the number of "recommended" books varied between the two copies; in the first there were 18 in the second there were 19. The name of the 19th book is the "Elthesauro de poueri in medicicina" or "Tesoro de poveri."
