- Abstract
- en_US See my comments on Volume I. This volume contains Books X-XV. The illustration to X 27 is out of place at 328; it is a good illustration of the The Boy and the Nuts in a Jar. XI 16 (347) has fun. The servant who has become rich enough to be a master forgets himself and gets up on the servants' bench instead of into the coach! There is another good illustration for this fable. On 529-48 we find an alphabetical listing of Sententiae from the fables, with references to the appropriate pages. On 549-95 there is an alphabetical Index Rerum, which includes more than fable titles. Enjoy the erratum on 592: Idnex for Index. 596-612 offers a Nominum Quorundam Explicatio. There is finally a list of errata--which misses the erratum on 592. I think I can see the hand of a kindred-spirit teacher in this carefully prepared book! Collection X, #F-0088 I-II, which comments that this edition is particularly sought after because of Verhelst's fine engravings. The spine is deteriorating. For me, this is certainly one of the treasures of this collection!
