2 works in 1 volume. Commentary on the Book of Psalms with religious poetry in an attractive, contemporary binding. The Italian humanist Marcus Antonius Flaminius (Seravalla 1498 - Rome 1550) first published his commentary in 1545. He gives a short summary of each psalm (argumentum), followed by the Latin text of the psalm, its commentary (explanatio) and a paraphrase. He also wrote an additional paraphrase in poetry of 30 psalms. The work is dedicated to Cardinal Alexander Farnese, one of Flaminius's protectors. It was popular and Adams lists editions for 1547, 1551, 1557, 1558 (present copy), 1561 and 1567. The second work contains a series of neo-Latin poems on biblical and religious subjects, dedicated to Margaretha of Valois, the sister of Henry II of France, who knew Latin and Greek and whose praises were sung by many poets.
