A collection of biographies the greater part of which are here published for the first time. The present ed. is printed from a ms. dated 1483, written by Sabadino himself, now in the Archivio di stato in Bologna. The first page of the ms. with illuminated initial N is reproduced in facsimile preceding title-page. A pen drawing of Saint George and the dragon, prefixed to the original ms., is also reproduced here facing the facsim. of the first p. of the ms.
