Remarks

Previous owners of the book have signed their names on the title page: "Valentini Radecii" (ante 1632), "Michaelis Musnay", "ex libris Gregorii Musnai", "Gregorii Kozma manu propria ab anno 1800".

The following notes are also to be found on the title page: "Persecutio Unitariorum in Polonia existentium facta est 1655, tempore Andreae Vissovatii Senioris" and "Solius virtutis flos perpetua".

Three notes are written on the front pastedown: fragment from 1. Cor. 1. v. 27 & 28 (in Hungarian), "Ex abundantia cordis os loquitur. Mat. 12.34", "Femina corpus, opes, animam, vim, lumina, vocem,/ Polluit, annihilat, necat, eripit, orbat, acerbat."

"Valentinus Radecius (? –1632) was a Unitarian priest of Polish descent. He was born in Gdańsk, studied in Raków, was a schoolmaster in Lusławice, then a Unitarian rector in Cluj [from 1605], a pastor from 1607, and a Unitarian bishop of Transylvania from 1616 until his death.” (Sándor Előd Ősz, Bibliotheca Calviniana Transylvanica.
