Notes: E.O. Weller acribes the pseudonym Peregrinum Simplicium von Arimino to Leonhardus Pappus, while the British Museum catalog acribes it to both Pappus and Waltherus Schnorfius. The BPL card catalog (and the NUC pre-1956 record, which is derived from the same) identifies Schnorfius (Schnorf) as the sole author. See also: Haller, Gottlieb Emmanuel von.

At least two editions of this title were published in 1659. Another is in octavo format and is 84 pages in length, with a slightly differing title. Many of the manuscript corrections in this copy appear to be reflected in that edition.

Boston Public Library (Rare Books Department) copy bound in medieval manuscript waste rubricated in red. This is an interleaved copy and is heavily annotated throughout, both within the margins of the printed pages and on the inserted sheets. The annotations, largely in German, consist of textual edits, with sections struck out, underlined, reformatted, and/or replaced. The recto of the front flyleaf contains two early inscriptions: "Joh. Conr. Maegis Jun 837" and " Ex libris Joh: Conradi Orellii, 1732, Lymb. Deo et Patriae." In this copy, leaf D4 (likely blank) is wanting. The perforation stamp of the Library is present on the title page.
