36 I am indebted to Dr. William T. Harris for the use of the copy of the Janua belonging to the library of the Bureau of Education at Washington. It is a handsome Elzevir, bound in vellum, and published at Amsterdam in 1661.

The remaining 352 pages are given to the lexicon-vocabularies in the different languages.

37 The Janua has lately been brought out in France in inexpensive form by Professor A. C. Vernier of the College of Autun. (Autun, 1899. pp. 350.)
