Textor: Sylloge


Sylloge variorum aenigmatum, apophthegmatum, gnomarum, historiarumque by Joannis Textor (1612)

The categories start with Sancta Scriptura, followed by the Mundus, then Tempus, Ignis, Aves, and on and on. This is a delightful anthology, very readable, mostly in Latin, along with some German.
