It is unclear if those copies from vdm 1422 that are not yet inspected are version (a) or (b) or a third version. So far we have detected two variant editions: variant (a) with a woodcut in the preface relating to Basel (vdm 1422) and variant (b) without woodcut but a bookstamp relating to the monastery St Gallen (vdm 1567). The two version differ also in the colophon.
