[2] [Mr. E.W.B. Nicholson, who thought at first that this MS. was
written at the end of the 14th century, in his Introduction to
Early Bodleian Music, by J.F.R. Stainer and C. Stainer,
London, 1901, has come to the conclusion (p. xviii.) that it belongs
to the first half of the 15th century. I agree with him. Mr. Nicholson
thinks that the writing is English, and that the miniatures are by a
Flemish artist; Mr. Holmes, the King's Librarian, believes that both
writing and miniatures are English. This MS. came into the Bodleian
Library between 1598 and 1605, and was probably given by Sir Thomas
Bodley himself. - H.C.]

the Book, but was omitted in the second edition. My own experience has
shown me the usefulness of this table, which contains 85 MSS.
instead of 75, and some additional particulars. - H.C.]

APPENDIX H. - Bibliography of Marco Polo's Book.
I. - PRINCIPAL EDITIONS.
We attempt a list of all the editions of Polo; a task for which Sir Henry
Yule had no advantages, and which will be found well done for the time in
Lazari's Appendix, based on Marsden. It may be also useful to mention the
chief Editions, with their dates.
1477. The first Printed Edition is in German.
