CONSTITVIÇOENS DO | ARCEBISPADO DE LIXBOA.- Lisboa: Germam Galharde Frences, 1537.- [10], LXXXV, [1] f.; 26 cm.- E. First constitutions of Lisbon, reformed by D. Afonso de Portugal (1509-1540), 10th archbishop, following the synod of 1536 in which the Church of Lisbon (and Portugal) replaced the Rite of Salisbury with the Roman Rite, in response to the proclamation of the Church of England by Henry VIII. Edition entirely composed in Gothic characters, with the exception of the title. The title page features a xilographic architectural framework, with the archbishop's coat of arms in the central reserve and the title at the base, inserted in a cartouche. This is followed by the “Tavoada destas constituições” (fol. [2] to [9]). The last preliminary sheet is part of the prologue. The text of the “Constituições” is developed on 85 sheets numbered from I to LXXXV. On the last sheet, with a blank verso, the colophon and an errata with eight lines. The copy, complete and solid, is excessively cropped, with the loss of the xilographic frame and the title (on the title page) and the marginal glosses on the pages of “Tavoada”. It was carefully treated (washed and reglued) and restored, namely on the title page and the last two sheets. The main text (85 f.) is clean and still has good margins. Recent red shagreen binding with triple fillets on the covers, roll on the squares, watered silk endpapers and top edge gilt. Anselmo, 613. BN (16th century), 418. Biblioteca de D. Manuel II, 253.
