Editio princeps.

The work by Stobaeus was probably composed in the early 5th cent. AD, consisting originally of four books, which were grouped later under the titles "Eklogai" (Eclogae) for Books 1-2 and Anthologion (Florilegium or Sermones) for Books 3-4; Often considered separate works, both parts are now collectively referred to as Anthologion.

Consists of "Eclogae" (Books 1-2) only.

Second part (p. 209-236) has special title page which reads: Plēthonis pros ton basilea Emanouēlon peri tōn en Peloponnēsō pragmatōn. Tou autou Symbouleutikos pros ton despotēn Theodōron peri tēs Peloponnēsou.

Colophon: Excudebat Antuerpiae Christoph. Plantinus, architypographus regius, sexto Kalend. Iunii, ann. MDLXXV [27 May 1575]
