Notes

• Ms. codex.
   
• Title from title page (f. [i]r) and caption title (f. 1r).
   
• Form of author's name taken from Zacour-Hirsch; author's name possibly written "Correro" originally in the manuscript but then corrected to "Cornero." This work has also been attributed to Andrea Boldù (Antonibon, Francesca. Le relazioni a stampa di ambasciatori veneti. Padova: Tipografia del seminario, 1939, p. 110).
   
• Author's name possibly written "Correro" originally in the manuscript but then corrected to "Cornero."
   
• Incipit (f. 1r): Serenissimo Prencipe et sapientissimo Senato poi che quello che hò da trattan' ...
   
• Piece torn out of the top of the title page (f.[i]), causing loss of most of an inscription that preceded the title. Oxidation of ink causing damage and brittleness to the paper on many leaves, and rendering much of the text hard to read.
