En casa del Ricardo de Campo, 1597 EXCESSIVELY RARE. The book, although printed in London, was meant for surreptitious circulation in Spain; but most of the copies fell into the hands of the Inquisition, and were destroyed.

s. 7. 1611

In verse ; the composition of a Jesuit partisan whose references to the infant King and the Queen Regent might have brought him into peril. 17216 [REBOUL (Guillaume)] la Cabale des Reformez, par I. D. C.— Apologie de Reboul sur la Cabale des Reformez-2 parts in 1 vol. 12mo. vellum, 36s Mompellier, 1600

A copy fetched at Paris, in 1880, 155 fr. It is an extremely curious satire against the Huguenots, from whose ranks the turbulent author had apostatized. His head was taken off at Rome in 1611, for a lampoon against the Pope.

17223 BROCARD (Iames) the Revelation of S. Iohn reueled . . . Englished by Iames Sanford, sm. 4to. vellum, £2. 10s

1582 Brocard was an Italian reformer, and of course his revelation is anti

papal. 17224 CELSI (Mini) in Hæreticis Coërcendis quatenus progredi liceat disputatio, 12mo. calf, £3. 3s Christlinga, 1577

A rare book, usually but erroneously considered to have been written by the famous LELIUS SOCINUS (see Barbier); but the imprint is a fabrication, and the typography seems to be assignable to Basel, where Minus Celsus, a refugee from Rome, and one of the small band of Italian reformers, was living in 1572. It is a noble plea for religious toleration.

17225 OCHINI (Bernardini) liber de Corporis Christi præsentia in Coenæ sacramento, 12mo. fine copy in old red morocco, by Padeloup, with Girardot de Prefond's name stamped on the leather lining inside the cover, £2. Basilea [about 1545]

17227

Girardot's name, with the date 1755, is written on one of the fly-leaves. This volume was therefore part of his first collection. The label bearing his name is long, not round.!

(? Basilea, cir. 1550-43-44-45) The complete set of Ochino's Italian Sermons is very rare. Seldom are more than two or three volumes found together, even in the richest libraries. The first volume is a reprint, probably executed about 1550, while the others are original issues, printed apparently in 1543 and 1544. There is no title to part v.

Basilea, 1563 the same, 2 vols in 1, 12mo. fine copy in old French red morocco extra, gilt edges, £3. 3s

1563

The twenty-first section is the famous Dialogue on Polygamy, in which Ochino and a friend argue the question. In his own name Ochino holds the orthodox view, but he plainly allows himself to be out-reasoned by his collocutor, who desired and held it right that one man might have many wives.

17231 OCHINO. A TRAGOEDIE or Dialoge of the vniuste vsurped primacie of the Bishop of Rome, and of all the iust abolishyng of the same, made by master Barnardine Ochine an Italian, & translated out of Latine into Englishe by Master John Ponet sm. 4to. black letter, every page ruled with red ink, very fine copy in the original smooth calf binding, bearing an elegant geometrical design in gold and painted compartments (mosaic) in the Grolier style, with the arms of Thomas Wotton in the centre compartments; enclosed in a morocco case, £150.

1549

This is one of the most lovely specimens of early English binding of its kind in existence, and enables Thomas Wotton to rank as a collector of beautiful books by the side of Grolier and Maioli. The book has come from the Sunderland or Marlborough library, and was the only "English Grolier" in that marvellous collection.

17232 DIAZ. CHRISTIANAE RELIGIONIS SUMMA

per clarissimum uirum Ioannem Diazium, 12mo. unbound, 8 leaves, £10. Neuburgi Danubii, 1546

EXCESSIVELY RARE, this original edition being unrecorded by the bibliographers. Diaz finished his MS. of the Summa on the 29th of February, 1546, and had it printed between that date and the 28th of March, when he was murdered by his brother, In the following November there was published under the name of Senarclæus an account by Fr. de Enzinas of the assassination, with an appendix containing a reprint of the Summa, which even then seems to have become rare.

don s. n. 2 vols. or 1559

Only one other copy scems to be known, which is preserved in the University Library at Göttingen. The Carta a Don Philippe is evidently wanting in that copy, as it was not included in the reprint made by Wiffen and Usoz. There are two leaves wanting here in the Carta, and the Dos Informaciones is somewhat cropped, but otherwise the book is perfect.

s. l. 1531-32 (reprint executed about 1740)

There can be no doubt that this was printed in the eighteenth century; consequently, the statement which appears in the Supplement to Brunet simply proves that there were two early editions besides the contrefaçon. 17238 [TEJEDA (Fernando de) o Tomas CARRASCO] Carrascon, segunda vez impreso (por Usoz i Rio), 16mo. half morocco gilt, 20s Nodriza, 1633 (reprinted Madrid, 1847) The original edition, printed at the Dutch press of Norwich, is excessively An interesting bibliographical essay precedes the reimpression.

1882

To Mr. Betts and the late B. B. Wiffen belongs the merit of having drawn public attention in England to the great religious movements during the 16th century in Spain and Italy.

The original works having been placed upon the INDEX are all of excessive rarity.

RARE ORIGINAL EDITION of this important work, supposed to be the most complete and authoritative exposition of the Socinian doctrines. The author died a year or two before its date, and the publication of the book was entrusted to his co-religionist, Crellius.

Racovia, 1618-17

The Socinians avouched themselves good Christians, and firmly believed in the divine mission of Jesus, but they attempted foolishly to reason away the difficulties of the Trinity. Romanists and Reformers alike held this to be an unpardonable heresy. Reason may be applied, say the theologians, to digest light and easy morsels, but the heavier food which cannot be masticated must be swallowed whole by Faith.
