Bible. O.T. Psalms. Latin. Paraphrases. 1538. Snoy

Psalterium Davidicum paraphrasibus brevibus illustratum, nec non, servata ubique ad verbum Hieronymi translatione, accuratissime denuo revisum atque castigatum. Autore Reynerio Snoy Gaudano

      Coloni!:: Ioannes Gymnicus,, 1538.. Contemporary blind-tooled sheep, abraded and peeling in spots; much leather lost over spine, with bands visible. Ties now lacking. Front pastedown with private collector's label and small library stamp, title-page with library stamp and inscription. Inked marginalia in an early hand. Some leaves sticking at margins. Lower corners of last three text leaves plus final flyleaf eaten away, with loss of a very few letters on one page.. 8vo. [16], 542, [2 (blank)] pp. . Scarce early edition of Snoy's interpretation of the Psalms, which was still being printed (in Spain) as late as 1785. The colophon notes that the work was completed in 1535. This volume was printed with care, and is ornamented with decorated initials and an attractive hippocampus printer's device. An early scholar added occasional comments. Provenance: Title-page with stamp "Bibliothec. P.R. Stuttg." and inscription "Ex Biblioth. Comborg"
