= From the library of Spencer Perceval (1762-1812), Prime Minister of the United Kingdom (his bookplate on pastedowns). Brunet III, p.569; Graesse III, p.480; Dibdin II, p.132: "the correctness of the Greek text, the judgment displayed in the annotations, the utility of the indexes, and the consummate knowledge which is evinced of the history and antiquities of the times, render this work deserving of every thing said in commendation of it by Fabricius, Harwood, Harles, and Oberthür."
