In 1591, in a chapter of Second Fruits, John Florio introduced the character Lippo Topo, inspired by Boccaccio’s Decameron.
Later, he anonymously published two short stories, both derived from the same source—the tenth tale of the sixth day in the Decameron—which he reworked and expanded into novels. #FlorioFriday

Very thankful to have missed out on 17th century dentistry! From a work on surgical tools, Armamentarium chirurgicum, printed in 1662.

“We need not speak so much of love, all books are full of love, with so many authors, that it were labour lost to speak of Love."

[Marsh's Library @MarshsLibrary]

An early owner of this book used a very detailed (and well manicured) 'manicule' or pointing hand to mark an important section. Bit more effort than an 'NB'! From a copy of Peter Lombard's 'Sentences' printed 527 years ago.

Germany have been robbed.

Can anybody give me a reason why it was not a handball?

These silly English referees are ruining football.

Ridiculous and pathetic!
