Pell (pp. 33-46) and _The description of one of the chiefest Libraries
which is in Germanie_, attributed either to Julius Scheurl or J.
Schwartzkopf (pp. [47]-65, in Latin). This seems to be the first
printing of _The description_, which was published separately at
Wolfenbuttel in 1653. John Pell's essay was written around 1630-34 and
was prepared for publication in 1634 by Hartlib, but was only actually
published as an addition to _The Reformed Librarie-Keeper_. It was of
some importance in making mathematics better known at the time.]
