  2. a2r De sacramento altaris. ‘Prologus'. Incipit: ‘[V]icia sepe speciem virtutum preferunt et sub specie pietatis sepenumero impietas et ydolatria irrepit . . .’

Weber, ‘Ein Druckerscherz in einem Lübecker Frühdruck', Nordisk tidskrift for bok- och biblioteksväsen, 27 (1940), 158-9; the author suggests that it might be a joke of an Italian apprentice who had followed Arndes from Perugia, where he had established a workshop in c.1480, back to northern Germany.
