Another _Mundus novus_ is supposed by Harrisse to have been printed somewhere in the lower Rhineland, and to bear the mark of Wm. Vorsterman, of Antwerp, on the last leaf, merely to give it currency in the Netherlands. It has four leaves, and forty-four lines to the full page. There are copies in the Lenox and Harvard College libraries.[516] The _Serapeum_ for January, 1861, describes a _Mundus novus_ as preserved in the Mercantile Library at Hamburg,—a plaquette of four leaves, with forty-five lines to the page,—which seems to differ from all others.[517] Later, in his _Additions_ (1872), Harrisse described other issues of the _Novus mundus_ which do not seem to be identical with those mentioned in his _Bibliotheca Americana Vetustissima_. One of these—_Mūdus novus_, printed in a very small gothic letter, four leaves—he found in the Biblioteca Cosatenense at Rome.[518] The other has for the leading title, _Epistola Albericii: de novo mundo_,—a plaquette of four leaves, forty-eight lines to the page, with map and woodcut.[519] This letter of Vespucius was again issued at Strasburg in 1505, with the title _Be [De] ora antarctica_, as shown in the annexed fac-simile; and joined with this text, in the little six-leaved tract, was a letter of Philesius to Bruno, and some Latin verses by Philesius; and in this form we have it probably for the last time in that language.[520] This Philesius we shall encounter again later. [Illustration] It was this Latin rendering by Giocondo, the architect, as Harrisse thinks,[521] upon which the Italian text of the _Paesi novamente_ was founded. Varnhagen in his _Amerigo Vespucci, son caractère_ (p. 13), prints side by side this Italian and the Latin text, marking different readings in the latter. In this same year (1505) the first German edition was issued at Nuremberg, though it is undated: _Von der new gefundē Region die wol ein welt genennt mag werden durch den cristenlichen Künig von Portugall wunnderbarlich erfunden_.[522] The colophon shows that this German version was made from a copy of the Latin text brought from Paris in May, 1505: _Ausz latein ist dist missiue in Teütsch gezogē ausz dem exemplar das von Parisz kam ym maien monet nach Christi geburt, Funfftzenhundert vnnd Fünffjar. Gedruckt yn Nüremburg durch Wolffgang Hueber_. The full page of this edition has thirty-seven lines. [Illustration: TITLE OF THE DRESDEN COPY. This follows the fac-simile given in Ruge’s _Geschichte des Zeitalters der Entdeckungen_, p. 333, of an edition in the Royal Library at Dresden.] Another edition, issued the same year (1505), shows a slight change in the title, _Von der neü gefunden Region so wol ein welt genempt mag werden, durch den Christēlichen künig, von Portigal wunderbarlich erfunden_. This is followed by the same cut of the King, and has a similar colophon. Its full page contains thirty-three lines.[523]
