Beschreibung

Quarto, 20 x 14 cm, pp [28], 146, [2]. Fr. Loayzaga (1716-1758) was the "capellan" of the shrine of Our Lady of Ocotlan, which goes back to 1541 and is still in existence in that town. He was at such pains to decorate the sanctuary in a suitable manner that he spent everything he had so that the only clothes he owned were those on his back. The first edition of this his only book, appeared in 1745, in Puebla, and Palau (130384) notes that "esta obra se ha hecho muy rara": there are no listings for it on OCLC or at auction. This second edition was enlarged according to the title page and is a complete history of the shrine, the miraculous apparition, and the many miracles associated with it. Bound in 19th century calf over mottled boards, with tooling on the spine. There is some moderate trimming, but the paper and text is very fresh and clean. A very nice copy.
