Notes
Engraved pictorial t.p. depicts the excesses at Tralmachio's banquet. With letterpress: Titus Petronius Arbiter cum commentariis, signed: Romyn de Hooghe. This is one of De Hooghe's earliest book illustrations; not in Landwehr's 'De Hooghe' or Hollstein.
"Priapeia" with half-title, separate pagination.
Volume [2] has special t.p.: Integrum Titi Petronii Arbitri Fragmentum, ex antiquo codice Traguriensi Romæ exscriptum; cum Apologia Marini Statilii I.V.D. Editio secunda, dated: 1671. The 'Apologia' has separate pagination.
Volume [2] edited by Giovanni Lucio who here assumes the name of Marino Statileo, the original discoverer of the ms. It has been erroneously attributed to Pierre Petit, being confused with Petit's Responsio ad Wagenseilii et Valesii Dissertationes which was published under the same pseudonym in 1666. Cf. Bibl. Soc., London, v. 10, p. 172.
