‎The uncommon first printing of the renowned Fischer-edition, esteemed for its seroiusness and correctness and for the 38 pages long preface by Ernesti as well as the very elaborated index of almost 400 pages.""This is a good edition, although indifferently printed. It is formed on the basis of N. Heinsius's, and contains the whole of his notes, with some additional ones from Burman. The preface is by the famous Ernesti: there is added a copius ""Index Verborum"". (Dibdin II:269).‎
