The intention was evidently to reproduce exactly the Ambrosian 4to., but the forgers were unable in several instances to make the text run line for line. Although the breadth of the lines is greater by the size of an “m,” than that of the lines in the original several devices had to be practised so as to secure complete conformity at the beginnings and endings. One point may be noted for the guidance of others. In the Nyma on the last page, the original has the words "marauilla del mudo "while in the forgery this phrase appears by oversight as "merauilla del mudo" (me in the first word being an Italianisation, and the stroke omitted over u in the third word which indicated mundo instead of mudo). There were two other distinct forgeries of the same Epistle, in which perhaps the same mistake may not have been made. Primera Epistola del Almirante dando cuenta de su gran descubrimiento a D. Gabriel Sanchez . . Acompaña al texto original castellano el de la traduccion latina de 1493, y precede la noticia por el editor D. Genaro H. de Volafan [i.e. Varnhagen], 8vo. sd. Valencia, 1858 Privately printed from a MS. of the sixteenth century which may not have been derived from the printed folin (of Barcelona 1493) now in the Lenox library.
