From the state of the woodcut on A1r the date of printing must be after Sept. 1494; the colophon reads ‘M.cccclxxxxii', implying that a ‘v' has dropped out of the date as printed in the colophon (BMC note). According to BMC, a companion volume to H 12150 (Goff O‑137), dated 1498, with whose catchwords in the register this volume corresponds. BSB‑Ink and CIBN treat this and Pr 5245 (O‑047) as one item.
