Darlow and Moule 1439. Another edition was printed in 1629; it is not known which of the two was in Jefferson’s library.
Bound for Jefferson in calf, gilt ornaments on the back, marbled endpapers, sprinkled edges, white silk bookmark. Initialled by Jefferson at sig. I and T. Pasted down on the first page is a slip with Jefferson’s original shelf-mark written by him in ink: C 17. 18. The 1815 bookplate is correctly numbered 18, but in the 1815 printed catalogue this number has been transposed with no. 16 above. The book contains the autograph signature Harwood in 2 places, and the few manuscript notes are not by Jefferson.
The Greek is a mixed text; the Latin is Beza’s translation and the French text is the Geneva version.
