"Cu[m] gratia et priuilegio." --foot of title page.

Running title: Le bregement de statutis.

Sometimes known as the Vieux abridgment or Vetus abbreviamentum. --cf. Cowley, J.D. Bibliography of abridgments, p. xix.

Colophon: Expliciunt abreuiamenta statutorum vna cum additionibus nouis necno[n] cu[m] aliis non minus vtilioribus cu[m] solerti cura ac dilige[n]tia fideli bybliopole Roberti Redman in perochia sancti Clementis sub intersignio sancti Georgii. Anno domini millesimo quingentesimo. xvii. [sic, for xxvii] die vero .iii. mensis Ianuarii.

Probable date of imprint from colophon. "The colophon ... gives the date as 1517/8; but as Redman was not printing before 1525, the earlier date would be impossible if the title correctly describes the work as an abridgment to 18 Henry VIII (1527/8)" --Cowley, J.D. Bibliography of abridgments, p. xxii.

In black letter type.

Initials.
