2nd ed.- // 8º, (195x145 mm).- [8], CCXXIIII h.; sign.: [greek]8, a-z8, A-E8; great woodcut with the coat of arms of Francisco de Bovadilla in title-page; three woodcuts of solstices and sun eclipses (f. Ixiiii, xcvii, cviii); gothic types; capitals; marginalia.

Late parchment binding; 'Venegas. Diferenc de Libros' writed on spine; rope closures; private library label glued on spine; old moisture stain on the upper margin of the first leaves and on the lower of a1-8; sporadic foxing; lacking upper tips of E1 and E2, with no affection; stain in end leaf. Good copy. (Let you ask us for more photos if you need them.)
Provenance: rom the library of Marqués de Pidal; two handwritten exlibris in verso of last leaf, one crossed out, 'Este libro es de Francisco de Pamplona', and the other 'Este libro es de mons. José María de Villanueva, Vicario de SyS martir'.
Let Venegas explain himself (from f. V last line): "Decimos que tomando este nombre libro en toda su significación general, por todo aquello que estendidamente puede significar: Libro es un arca de depósito en que por noticia esencial, o por cosas, o por figuras, se depositan aquellas cosas que pertenencen a la información y claridad del entendimiento. Esta definición es tan general, que no se dará escriptura que no se encierre debajo della. Primeramente dícese, que el libro es arca: porque así como el arca derivada de este verbo, arceo, por arredrar (según dice Marco Varrón), arriedra de sí los ladrones, así el libro arriedra de sí la ignorancia. Dícese lo segundo de depósito, porque así como el arca se inventó para guardar en ella las cosas del cuerpo, así en el libro se conserva el tesoro del conoscimiento que pertenece al entendimiento. Dícese lo tercero por noticia esencial, solamente por el libro divino, que es la noticia y conoscimiento que eternalmente tiene Dios de sí mismo, por el cual conoscimiento conosce todas las cosas que fueron, son, y serán, que son infinitas; y conosciendo su divina esencia, con este eterno conoscimiento produce y engendra al verbo eterno en el cual y por el cual cria todas las cosas. Deste libro divino dice San Juan: Per quem omnia facta sunt. Que Dios crió todas las cosas por el conoscimiento que tuvo y tiene de sí mismo en este libro divino. Añádese en la difinición que también se depone algo por cosas, por todo aquello que fuera de sí trae noticia de otra cosa, así como son las insignias y trages y cosas naturales, y cosas señaladas en el libro de la razón. Añádese por figuras, por la diversidad de las letras escriptas. Lo último está claro: que cierto es que cualquier escriptura contiene algo de lo que pertenece a la información y claridad del entendimiento, porque aunque sea malo lo que en la scriptura se encierra, informa al entendimiento lo que no debe el hombre querer, ni decir, ni hacer. De aquí acostumbraba a decir Plinio el Philosopho (como trae su sobrino), que no había libro tan malo, que de alguna parte no aprovechase. Es tanto bien saber bien y mal, que no se puede tener entero conoscimiento del bien, sin que juntamente se tenga del mal. Estimó Adán en tanto esta joya de saber bien y mal, que pensando de alcanzarla se atrevió a tener en alguna manera competencia con Dios, por presumir de maestro antes que fuese discípulo. Mas el secreto deste tan alto conoscimiento fue tan secreto, que nunca los hombres le pudieron entrar."
