With Frontispiece engraved by D. Logan, containing portraits of King Charles II., Archbishop Sheldon, the Earl of Clarendon, and G. Monk, Duke of Albemarle. Very rare.

In this Tract, Atkyns attempts to prove that the Art of Printing was first introduced into England by Frederick Corsellis, and not by William Caxton. Atkins's book is unknown to foreigners, and seen but by few in England.— Palmer, Hist. of Printing, Book iii, p. 125.

127 AUGUSTINUS. De Vera Vita Cognitione.

Red initial letters, 4to. dark mor. gilt edges, by Mackenzie, without place or date, but printed in the office of Faust and Schoeffer. A fine copy of an exceeding rare book.

"This appears to be the earliest impression extant, separately executed of the work. The type is of the founts of letter used by the above printers, and similar to that of the Durandus and the Offices of Cicero. The recto of the first leaf is blank. The table begins on the reverse and ends on the verso of the second leaf. On the recto of the third leaf we read at top, Incipit phemiù libelli.

"The proheme occupies 2 pages; and the entire work comprises xliii. chapters, or 34 leaves; 28 lines to a page. On the recto of the 34th and last leaf we read the concluding line thus: Augustini de vere vite cognicoe libellus explic.

"The device of Faust and Schoeffer (the shields printed in red) is beneath." —Dibdin's Spenceriana, vol. iv., p. 446.
