Benedictus' edition of the Vulgate Bible was originally published in 1541. This is a separate edtition of the New Testament from that edition, with additional notes.

Part 2 (Epistles and Revelation) has separate foliation and special dated title page which reads: Diui Pauli Epistolae, non vulgaribus doctorum scholijs illustratae. Parisiis, Apud Simonem Colinaeum, & Galeotum à Prato. 1543.

Signatures: [fleuron]-2[fleuron]⁸ 3[fleuron]⁴ a-z⁸ A-S⁸ T⁴ (leaf z8 blank; leaf H4 signed H3).

Renouard gives a different collation for part 1 ending with leaf y6, but with foliation numbering indicated correctly.
