1880 French.

This is a copy of the time of King Louis XII., made apparently for Admiral Louis Malet de Graville, Governor of Honfleur, who died in 1516; it bears the arms of the Urfe family; it is at times modernized, but less is suppressed in it than in MSS.

5631 and 2810. The MS. ends: "Et sa auchuns disdaine qui a lui ..." about the middle of ch. cxcix of Pauthier's ed., p. 738, line 4. These are also the last words of the Stockholm MS. of which it is a copy.

Purchased in 1870.

24 PARIS Bib. nationale, No. 3195 Latin.

This is the old Latin version, published by the Soc. de Geog., and which I have cited as Geographic Latin or G.L. (See vol. i., Int. Various Types of the Text.) [Contains: Petri Amphusi clericalis disciplina; Odoric; Marco Polo; Bernardi cujusdam ad Raymundum Castri Ambrosii epistola de modo rei familiaris utilius gubernandae. Cf. Cat. Cod. MSS. Bib. Reg.

27 PARIS Bib. Nationale, Codd. Ital., No. 10,259 [now 434] Italian.

Paper, 4to, of 14th century. Seen, but not examined with any care, which I regret, as the readings suggest that it may have been that text from which Pipino translated [pp. 100.].

[Begins f. 2 recto: "Signori Imperadori Re e Duci e tutte altre gienti che || uolete sapere le diuerse gienerationi delle gienti || elle diuersita delle regioni del mondo leggiete que || sto libro doue retrouerrete tutte le grandissime marauigle," etc.

Ends: "Explicit Liber de Milione per Messe Marcho Polo di Vinegia. Deo gratias."]
