[208] Folios 11 and 40. Cf. Bibl. Amer. Vet., no. 17; Sabin, vol. x. no. 41,067. Harrisse, Notes on Columbus, p. 55, says Rich errs in stating that an earlier work of Lilio (1493) has a reference to the discovery.

[210] Harrisse, Notes on Columbus, no. 126. The Coronica de Aragon, of Fabricius de Vagad, which was published in 1499, makes reference to the new discoveries (Bibl. Amer. Vet., Additions, no. 9), as does the Coronica van Coellen, published at Cologne, 1499, where, on the verso of folio 339, it speaks of “new lands found, in which men roam like beasts” (Murphy, no. 254; Baer, Incunabeln, 1884, no. 172, at 160 marks; London Catalogue (1884), £12 10s.). In 1498, at Venice, was published Marc. Ant. Sabellicus’ In rapsodiam historiarum (copy in British Museum), which has a brief account of Columbus’ family and his early life. This was enlarged in the second part, published at Venice in 1504 (Bibl. Amer. Vet., no. 21). An anchor lost by Columbus on this voyage, at Trinidad, is said to have been recovered in 1880 (Bulletin de la Société Géographique d’Anvers, v. 515).
[211] Que escribió D. Cristóbal Colon á los ... Rey y Reina de España. Cf. Harrisse, Notes on Columbus, p. 127. It is given, with an English translation, in Major’s Select Letters; also in the Relazione delle scoperte fatte da C. Colombo, da A. Vespucci, e da altri dal 1492 al 1506, tratta dai manoscritti della Biblioteca di Ferrara e pubblicata per la prima volta ed annotata dal Prof. G. Ferraro, at Bologna, in 1875, as no. 144 of the Scelta di curiosità letterarie inedite o rare dal secolo xiii al xvii. A French translation is given in Charton’s Voyageurs, iii. 174.
[212] It is usually said that Ferdinand Columbus asserts it was printed; but Harrisse says he can find no such statement in Ferdinand’s book.

[214] It is a little quarto of six leaves and an additional blank leaf (Lenox, Scyllacius, p. lxi; Harrisse, Bibl. Amer. Vet., no. 36). There is a copy in the Marciana, which Harrisse compared with the Morelli reprint, and says he found the latter extremely faithful (Bibl. Amer. Vet., no. 17).
