The monogram A, assigned by some to Assuerus Van Londerzeel .... but speaking of the 1581 edition the monogram A my be for Adam van Oort." - Fehlen 16 nn.

The publisher's details and date on the title page have been removed, which is why our copy cannot be clearly dated, as the 1601, 1602 and 1608 editions have identical collation and the same title wood-cut. - Present emblematic wood-cuts, framed by borders, are taken from the first edition with comments by Claude Mignault printed by Platin, 1581 (Adams I, 608). Cf. Green, Alciati, p. 132. 'The devices are an exact copy of the woodcuts in another edition of Alciat's emblems, that by Plantin, 1581, but the borders are not the same (and see there) ... The monogram A, assigned by some to Assuerus Van Londerzeel .... but speaking of the 1581 edition, the monogram A may be for Adam van Oort.' - 16 unnumbered leaves of the introduction (praise poems, epistles, biography of the author, etc.) are missing.
