Provenance: E. Jodin (from fore-edge gauffering); illegible contemporary inscriptions on title page; pictorial bookplate (19th cent.?) of a winepress with inscription "Torcular calcavi solus", stamped with accession no. 89929 on upper pastedown.

Binding: contemporary calf, rebacked, blind-tooled on covers with a bee and flower pattern; page-edges gilt and richly gauffered with a running floral pattern, incorporating owner's (presumably) name on fore-edge. The restored back is blind-tooled in a somewhat similar pattern to the covers. The edges of the covers are also restored probably as part of the rebacking, and traces of removed clasps apparently eliminated. In custom hinged case, with brown buckram over boards, gold-tooled and stamped on back, with dark brown leather title label.
