Content
 On the last page of this book, printed by the Utrecht printers Nicolaes Ketelaer and Gheraert de Leempt, the rubricator has placed a postscript: Anno 1474. Finitum Traiecti (finished in Utrecht in 1474). Despite the lack of a colophon, it can be determined that the book must have been printed shortly before 1474.
