The project 'that can be seen as a series, and which ensured Maire's reputation through the ages, is undoubtedly his edition of Erasmus's 'opera omnia' in 12mo. 23 different volumes appeared between 1641 and 1652. The first half of this book contains the introduction and the biographic sketches, the rest is filled with the letters of Erasmus) (Provenance: Inscription in small type on the title: 'Liber Guilhelmi Griffithii Anglo-Brittani Artium Magistri Cantebrigensis; emtus 1.6. 1664'.
