She composed many works in prose and verse. In 1501, some of her poems, on the Martyrdom of St. Denys, the Blessed Virgin, St. Ann, &c. were printed at Nuremburgh. Her verses in praise of Otto II. would be tolerable, if they were not Leonines: there are in them some errors of prosody." Bib. Univers. et Histor. Vol. ii. p. 46.] [Footnote 005: For a fuller account of Feudal and Civil Jurisprudence, the writer of these pages begs leave to refer to his work, entitled, "HORÆ JURIDICÆ SUBSECIVÆ, being a connected series of Notes respecting the Geography, Chronology, and Literary History of the principal Codes and original Documents of the Grecian, Roman, Feudal, and Canon Law." 1 vol. 8vo.] [Footnote 006: It is entitled, "_Martiani Minei Felicis Capellæ Carthaginiensis, Viri Procunsularis, Satyricon, in quo de Nuptiis Philologiæ et Mecurii libri duo, & de septem artibus liberalibus libri singulares.

[Transcriber's note: Apostrophic date 1600] The Dedication to the Prince of Condé follows: then, Encomiastic Verses by Scaliger, and Tiliabrogus. The two works are then inserted, with an address to the reader, Errata, and Various Readings. Afterwards, _Hugeiani Grotii Februa[007] in Satyricon Martiani Capellæ:_ this contains his notes. They are preceded by an Engraving of Grotius. Round it, is written, "_Anno_ M. D. C." [Transcriber's note: Apostrophic date 1600] Hora Ruit.[008] Æt.xv. Under the engraving the following verses are printed, "_Quem sibi quindenis_ ASTRÆA _sacravit ab annis, Talis,_ HUGEIANI GROTII _ora fero_."] [Footnote 007: "Corrections"--or more literarily, "Purifications".] [Footnote 008: These words were used by Grotius for his motto.] [Footnote 009: Fabricii Bibliotheca Latina, Lib iii. c. 15. In 1794, John Adam Goez published the "Treatise on the Marriage of Philology and Mercury" separately, in a duodecimo volume: he mentions, in the preface, an edition of it by Walthard. It is on the authority of Goez that we have assigned the age of Capella to the third century: others place him in a much later period.] [Footnote 010: Montucla.
