The clasps have engraven on them, in the same character,—
"LIB DNS ET MGER JOANNIS VAM MERE."
On the title-page, slightly varied in each volume, is the following inscription, in a hand not much later than the publication of the book:
"Liber M. Joachimi Moller ex testamento M. Johanīs vam mer optim et maximus deus illius anime misereatur. Amen."
I shall be much obliged to any one who will explain to me the figures on the cover, which, doubtless, have some legendary or symbolic meaning; and also give me any notes or references concerning either of the former possessors of the book, both of whom have, I believe, enriched it with manuscript notes.
