Excerpt from The Three Impostors: Translated (With Notes and Comments) From a French Manuscript of the Work Written in the Year 1716, With a Dissertation on the Original Treatise
The manuscript is well written, and apparently by two different hands, which would be probable from the facts set forth in the Dissertation. A copy of the translation from the Latin is probably deposited, in the library of Duke Eugene de Subaudio as set forth in the colophon at end of the manuscript.
