Notes

The Fourth book was originally published in French as IV. livre de la philosophie occulte, in 1565, without name of printer or place. It was not introduced into the collected works to Agrippa until after his death (cf. NUC-pre 56).
The Heptameron, or, Magical elements of Peter de Abano is a spurious work attributed to Petrus de Abano (cf. NUC pre-1956).
Possibly printed by James Cottrell.
