Imprint: [Rome: Stephan Plannck, 1488-90]. 4°.
Remarks: The end of the text apparently gives the date of the oration as 1 Mar. 1476: this is incorrect, this date being taken from the colophon of an earlier edition of Campanus's oration (Cagli: Roberto [di Fano] and Bernardino [di Bergamo], 1 Mar. 1476; GW 5942).
