VI. In the German volume, the title of which is already given in the first article of the engravings from the Basle painting,[120] there are twenty-nine subjects belonging to the present work; the rest relating to the Basle dance, except two or three that are not in either of them. These have fallen into the hands of a modern bookseller, but there can be no doubt that there were other editions which contained the whole set. The most of them have the letters [monogram: G. S.] with the graving tool, and one has the date 1576. The name of this artist is unknown; but M. Bartsch has mentioned several other engravings by him, omitting, however, the present, which, it is to be observed, sometimes vary in design from the originals. VII. "Imagines Mortis illustratæ epigrammatis Georgii Æmylii theol. doctoris. Fraxineus Æmylio Suo. Criminis ut poenam mortem mors sustulit una: sic te immortalem mortis imago facit." With a cut of Death and the old man. This is the middle part only of a work, intitled "Libellus Davidis Chytræi de morte et vita æterna. Editio postrema; cui additæ sunt imagines mortis, illustrata Epigrammatis D. Georgio Æmylio, Witebergæ. Impressus à Matthæo Welack, anno MDXC." 12mo. The cuts, fifty-three in number, are, on the whole, tolerably faithful, but coarsely engraved. In the subject of the Pope the two Devils are omitted, and, in that of the Counsellor, the Demon blowing with a bellows into his ear is also wanting. Some have the mark [monogram: cross], and one that of [monogram: W] with a knife or graving tool. VIII. "Todtentanz durch alle stendt der menschen, &c. furgebildet mit figuren. S. Gallen, 1581." 4to. See Janssen, Essai sur l'origine de la gravure, i. 122, who seems to make them copies of the originals. IX. The last article in this list of the old copies, though prior in date to some of the preceding, is placed here as differing materially from them with respect to size. It is a small folio, with the following title, "Todtentantz, Das menschlichs leben anders nicht Dann nur ain lauff zum Tod Und Got ain nach seim glauben richt Dess findstu klaren tschaid O Mensch hicrinn mit andacht lisz Und fassz zu hertzen das So wirdsttu Ewigs hayls gewisz Kanst sterben dester bas. MDXLIIII. Desine longævos exposcere sedulus annos Inque bonis multos annumerare dies Atque hodie, fatale velit si rumpere filum Atropos, impavido pectore disce mori."
