The guiding force behind their production was James Duport 160679 dean of Peterborough and master of Magdelene College Cambridge a noted scholar of Latin and Greek and supporter of the university press. The preface to the Book of Common Prayer is signed with his initials and it is established that he was the editor of the Psalms; the texts were almost certainly issued together but are also at times found individually in contemporary binding.<br>Â Â Â Â Field's minute typography here is dense and presented chiefly in double-column format in both works; and instead of woodcut head- or tailpieces and xylographic initials he deploys printer's ornaments to enliven the text at the top of some sections and occasionally elsewhere. => The layout is overall lovely and thoughtful and the printing is extremely clear and precise.<br>Â Â Â Â Binding: Contemporary morocco with covers framed in a single blind fillet; spine with gilt-stamped leather title-label and gilt-stamped compartment decorations. Marbled endpapers all edges gilt. => All pages ruled in red in the best style of the era.<br>Â Â Â Â Provenance: Isaac Watts 16741748 the godfather of English hymnody is also fondly remembered for his Psalms of David: Imitated in the Language of the New Testament a work that was reprinted over a thousand times.

A vast collection assembled ca. AD 900 by the Byzantine schoolteacher Constantine Cephalas included the earlier collections as well as a large number of inscriptional epigrams collected from various parts of Greece and Asia Minor. The Palatine Anthology assembled by an unknown scholar soon after expanded Cephalas to approximately 3700 epigrams adding much Christian and ekphrastic poetry. "To this manuscript we owe almost our entire knowledge of Greek epigram from Meleager to Agathias" A.D.E. Cameron OCD 3rd ed. rev p. 102. In the 13th century the Byzantine monk Maximus Planudes produced a reduced version of the Palatine Anthology rearranging the epigrams in seven books with extensive subdivisions adding some epigrams not included by the Palatine Anthologist most of which came from a different version of Cephalas' collection but also bowdlerizing erotic passages and omitting what he considered improper. Most manuscript copies were made from the Planudean Anthology the earlier Palatine Anthology having been forgotten. Until the latter's rediscovery in 1606 the Planudean Anthology was the Greek Anthology and it exerted a huge influence throughout the Renaissance. Although Planudes' holograph manuscript was by this time in the collections of Cardinal Bessarion in Venice the Greek scholar Janus Lascaris used a different manuscript for the present edition; this version was followed by all subsequent editors until the latter half of the eighteenth century. This was the first of three editions with the Euripedes and the Gnomae printed by di Alopa in capital letters only using a striking uppercase typeface in two founts designed by Lascaris to imitate epigraphic letter-forms. As he explains in his dedicatory letter in this way he hoped to avoid the complications of reproducing Greek script. Lascaris' type contained only capital letters with breathings and accents cast and set separately and attached to the letters of the smaller fount by means of solder or wax so that its body matched perfectly that of the larger fount. Though visually arresting such a typeface proved insufficiently compact for the printing of scholia and two years later a true lowercase fount − just as complicated as those condemned by Lascaris − was introduced to print commentary for the editio princeps of the Argonautica. This copy is from the first issue containing the final unsigned quire with Lascaris' dedicatory letter in Latin to Piero de' Medici. Which was suppressed from some copies no doubt those still unsold after Piero was proscribed from Florence and fled the city following the entry of King Charles VIII on 8 November 1494.ISTC ia00765000; Goff Suppl.
