Verses arranged in 2 columns.

The woodcut ill. on the t.p., hand-colored, represents a king and a queen standing behind a banquet table, two young men to the right, an Asian to the left; the reverse order can be found on a woodcut in an ed. of this work executed in Florence ca. 1550. Cf. M. Sander. Le livre à figures italien, v. 1, item 2117. The woodcut border is the same as the one used by the printer Bernardo Zucchetta in Arlotto Mainardi's Facetie (Firenze, ca. 1510) Cf. M. Sander, v. 3, Addenda, p. 1342, item 126.

Apparently unique.
