Footnotes

  • 1. On the back of the volume is the usual Italian description: ‘Eugenio IV. 1435. Anno 5. Lib 60. A flyleaf has the contemporary notes: ‘Primus de Beneficiis vacantibus anno vto Engenii pape iiiii,’ (which occurs also, as usual, on the bottom edge of the volume), ‘Nucella’ (cancelled). and ‘Andreas Ruhricauit,’ together with modern notes ‘Vidi pro R[everenda] C[amera] A[postolica] Hib. Ang.’ and ‘Lib. lx, foliorum 310.’
  • 2. A blank space is left for the month. As the letter was expedited on July 23, 1435, and as it belongs to the year of the Incarnation, 1435, and the fifth year of Eugenius [March 11, 1435—March 10, 1436] its date must lie between March 25 and July 23, or, more exactly, between March 31 and June 30, 1435.
  • 3. ‘ac officiali Limiricen.’ is added in the margin by An[dreas de Adria].
