Woodcut on the title page: Pythagoras holding a pair of scales with a hammer in one pan and two weights in the other. He stands outdoors, in front of a smithy, where three men are hitting hammers on an anvil. In the background are a village with a mill and a castle on a hill. Inscription above: “PI TAGORAS.”
