TURNBULL AND SPEARS, PRINTERS, EDINBURGH.
[1] The Codex Sinaiticus, now at St Petersburg.
[2] The first printed musical notes appear in de Gerson's Collectorium super Magnificat, printed at Esslingen in 1473 by Conrad Fyner.
[3] The Pye, or Pica, directed how saints'-days falling in Lent, Easter, Whitsuntide, and the octave of Trinity, were to be observed with respect to the “commemorations” of these seasons.
[4] It is hardly necessary to remind the reader that at this period Westminster was quite distinct from London.
