[230] See what I have said of this second edition on p. [42], supra.
[231] See the exact text of this license, which includes three works of Tory, under no. 12, infra.
[232] 1530, new style.
[233] Not à l'escu de Basle, as in the note printed by M. Brunet.
[234] The license, which embraces the Economic Xenophon, and is printed at the end of the last-named book, extends the author's rights for four years, not for two. The discrepancy may be explained by the fact that the Ædiloquium was printed while Tory's application for the license was pending,—that is to say, in the first three months of 1531, which were then reckoned in the year 1530, according to the old computation. In fact, the license is dated June 18, 1531, which seems to conflict with the date of printing of the Ædiloquium. This circumstance also explains why the second title of the book is different in the printed volume from that given in the license (Erotica). See p. [31], supra.

[236] He does not mention the Ædiloquium, because it was in Latin.
[237] In the printed volume of the Ædiloquium, Tory modified this sub-title; for it might well have marred his epitaphs with a suspicion of obscenity which was very far from his thought.
