La Bibia, libro excellentissimo, hallo facto in dua volumi istoriati, tanto ricco et degno quanto dire si potessi, coperto di brocato d’oro, fornita d’ariento ricchissimamente, et questa ha facta così rica, come capo di tutti gli scritori [Urb. lat. 1-2; cfr. anche Urb. lat. 10]. Et tutti i comenti che l’hanno comentata, così del Maestro delle sententie, come Nicolao de Lira, et tutti li dotori antichi che l’hanno comentata, così i latini come i greci, et tutta la chiosa literale di Nicolaio de Lira, questo è libro che in questa età non s’è facto il simile.
