Dating According to the colophon, which states the book was printed "in the second year of the reign of Carolus (Charles V)." Charles' reign began in 1519, so technically this was supposed to be in 1520, but it is dated 1519. It also states that it was "printed for the third time." The first Soncino edition is established as 1508, and therefore a second is asusmed to have been porinted according to some estimates in 1517-1518. This is the third, of 1519.
