No. 2441 in the Riccardian Library at Florence (241 fols., occupying the whole volume) , written in 1471; and one edition of the text, in vol iii. of Gian Francesco Pagnini’s Della Decima e delle altre gravezze imposte dal commune di Firenze (Lisbon and Lucca—really Florence—1766) ; Sir Henry Yule, Cathay, ii. 279–308, translated into English the most interesting sections of Pegolotti, with valuable commentary (London, Hakluyt Society, 1866) . ”
