"The translation is generally perspicuous and faithful. The notes contain a good deal of learning, and frequently illustrate the meaning where it is obscure. The preliminary dissertation may be considered an answer to the valuable work of Daille on the same subject" (Orme). See Allibone, Dict. of Brit. and Amer. Auth. s.v. </p> | ||
