Publisher's Synopsis

In bringing my labours to a conclusion, I have many to thank for aid afforded me in collecting and annotating the materials which form the groundwork of the present volume. In the first place, I am under a debt of gratitude for the courtesy and liberality with which the librarians of the great public libraries of Paris, Munich, London, and Oxford, have answered my demands for access to the treasures in their charge.
