On the Cave of the Nymphs

OLD SCHOLIA, BOTH ANCIENT AND VERY USEFUL, ON THE ILIAD OF HOMER, AND ON THE ODYSSEY. (Thus) ALDUS.
The title is followed by the preface of A. Asulanus, in which he first complains of the barbarism of the time; soon after, he boasts of his own labor in restoring letters by publishing various writers: such as the Argonautica of Orpheus, published a little earlier, and now, in truth, the Scholia on Homer’s Iliad, which he praises.

The preface is followed by the Scholia themselves, with numbered pages. At the end, there is no mention of the printer.

Soon follow the Homeric Questions of Porphyry and the Book on the Cave of the Nymphs, with a new title, which again does not bear the mark of the year but the anchor and name of Aldus. The title is succeeded by the preface of A. Asulanus, which we have just given; this is followed by an Epigram of Lascaris on Porphyry; that is followed by the Questions themselves and the booklet on the Cave of the Nymphs, all without page numbers. At the end these words are read: At Venice, in the house of Aldus and his father-in-law Andrew (that is, A. Asulanus), in the month of May, 1521. Finally, in the same volume, a new title occurs, in which it is thus: THE EXPLANATION OF DIDYMUS THE ANCIENT ON THE ODYSSEY. THE INTERPRETATION OF DIDYMUS, THE MOST ANCIENT AUTHOR, ON THE ODYSSEY. Soon the sign and name of ALDUS, and below: Let no one else, where the dominion of the Venetians extends, print this book with impunity.
