The very interesting Codex of which the above is a careful reprint, was discovered in Mexico by Beltrami, in the year 1826. It is composed in the purest and most elegant Nahuati, that was ever written, by Bernardino Sahagun, a Spanish Franciscan, assisted by two princes of the royal house of Anahuac, one the son of Montezuma, the other the son of the Prince of Tezcuco-and purports to be a "postilla (post illa scilicet textus verba) on the Gospels and Epistles. Sahagun arrived at Mexico in the year 1529, and lived and lal oured with great success in that country for fully sixty years. Mr. Blondelli has accompanied Sahagun's text by a Latin version, has added a copious Vocabulary. Nahuati and Latin, and, by his introductory observations, has thrown considerable light not alone upon the Nahuati language, its affinity to other families of languages, its grammatical peculiarities, but also upon the traditions, institutions, and monuments of the Aztecs-thus forming a complete treasury of everything appertaining to the ancient Aztecs.
