The editor says "Thus the learned and diligent Monsignor Giovanni Bottari had to endure great difficulty when, taking it from a manuscript he possessed from the beginning of the fifteenth century, he went about comparing and correcting it, making use of other manuscripts and the best editions made before him, and it was published in Rome in the year 1740...".
