Translator’s notes

1. The end of **Book III** of Pererius's Commentaries on Genesis—the book devoted to **Paradise** (its nature and location, the tree of life, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and the four rivers, concluding that Paradise lay at the confluence of the Tigris and Euphrates near Mesopotamia). The page-foot reads "Comm. in Gen. Tom. 1" with signature X and catchword "BENE"; PDF 387 begins **Book IV**. ↩
