'NATURALL THEOLOGIE, or the book of creatures': anonymous English translation of the 'Theologia Naturalis' of Raymund de Sabunde or Sabonde, in 330 chapters, with prologue. The original author, a native of Barcelona and teacher of philosophy and medicine at Toulouse, died in 1432. The Latin work was first published in 1480 and often since, but it was brought into more general notice by the French translation of Michel de Montaigne in 1569 (cf. also his Essais, bk. ii, ch. xii). For another English version, taken from an abridged text, see above, 17 B. XIV, 17 B. XXVI. Paper; ff. 491. Folio. 11 1/2 in. x 7 1/2 in. Early XVII cent.; the date 'Jan. 31, 1602' at the top of f. 491 may possibly be the date of the translation. Belonged (autogr. name on f. 1) to [John, Lord] Lumley. Lumley cat. f. 120 (?); not in the other old catalogues.
