Remark:
Ex libris Joseph M. Gleason. See xcvii of Perry's Babrius and Phaedrus for praise of this book. See also Pack Carnes' (as yet unpublished) Phaedrus bibliography, which calls this an accurate paleographic reproduction of the P manuscript (Codex Pithoeanus) of the fables of Phaedrus, named after its sixteenth-century owner, Petrus Pithoeus. The manuscript at the time of this edition was in the possession of the Marquis L. de Rosanbo. Robert (1845-1903) adds a history of the manuscript which dates from the first half of the ninth century and is of uncertain provenance. (The manuscript is now in the Pierpont Morgan Library.) Carnes lists contemporary critical references.
