Bachot: Fasti Christiani


Fasti Christiani by Jean Bachot (1624)

As the subtitle explains, this is a "Pantheon quingentis in omnes sanctos distichis cum commentariis ornatum." The commentaries are quite long, sometimes running to a couple of pages, in addition to the distich for the saints and other religious holidays, who are arranged according to the holiday calendar.
