Amsterdam, Elzevir, 1672.

12mo. In contemporary full calf with four raised bands and richly gilt spine. Wear to spine, parts of gilting worn off. Head of spine chipped with a bit of loss of leather. Small paper-label pasted on to top of spine. Internally nice and clean. (10), 362, (20) pp. + engraved half-title (dated 1663). A blank leaf bound in between each printed leaf.
