Léon Wieger (WH) wrote on the cover: “Prolegomena occupant pp. 17. Proemium 28 pp., Latina interpretatio 44 + 26 + 16 + 6 + 16 + 16 + 19 pp.; 8 capita legatus. 24 x 16.”

J’ay cru que pour aider les scavans D’Europe à entrer dans la science de symboles, qu’ apres l’etude de l’ecriture s^te me paroit seule digne d’eux, je devois tacher de les mettre sur la voye par quelques prolegomenes qu’ils n’auront pas de peine a comprendre et a retenir. Ce sera comme le 6, ce de L’Y Kim. J’ay travaillé et ils retireront le fruit de mon travail, n’en serai je pas assez bien payé.

Minjia sanding Yijing zhengwen 閔家三訂易經正文.
(The character 經 is missing from the title page.) Collated by Huang Ruheng 黃汝亨 (1558–1629) and Li Zhizao 李之藻 (d. 1630).
Four juan, bamboo paper in one ce. Published by [Mr.] Yu of the Yuansheng tang bookstore 書林源盛堂余氏刊行.

The title page bears a seal with the name of the publisher in cursive characters. The first folio gives the title: 新刻京本正為音譯分章周易上經正文下經繫辭說卦共四卷 (A new Peking edition of the Zhou-Yi shangjing in a division of paragraphs, the xiajing, Xici and Shuogua, all together in four juan) and the names of the collators, both high placed jinshi (of 1598): 會魁黃汝亨貞甫李之藻振之甫仝校.
The book is printed in large characters, but is not elegant. Folios 2 and 3 are misplaced. The text is furnished with pronunciations after the fanqie 反切 system (i.e., to indicate the pronunciation of a character by the quick enunciation of two other characters).

This is in reality the first volume (two ce bound together) of the Yijing daquan (Zhouyi daquan or Zhouyi zhuanyi daquan 周易傳義大全), mentioned in the previous number (I, 20).
The title page mentions the reviser (Xu Jiuyi), the title and the publisher (the Juxian shuwu in Suzhou): 徐九一先生訂 | 易經大全 | 古吳菊僊書屋藏板. For Xu Qian (zi Jiuyi), see Jap-Sin II, 94.
The book begins with a preface to the Zhouyi by Cheng Yi 程頤 (1033–1107), the general contents of the Zhouyi daquan, an introduction to the Zhouyi zhuanyi daquan, the shi ceremonies 筮儀, the meaning of each chapter, five poems in praise of the yi, diagrams on the yi, by Zhu Xi 朱熹.

This is a manuscript written in Latin and consisting of forty folios. We do not know its author. The handwriting seems to be that of a missioner in China in the late Ming or early Qing period.
The treatise gives an explanation of the Yijing 易經 and discusses in great detail the concepts of taiji 太極 (the Absolute - the ultimate principle in Chinese philosophy), liangyi 兩儀 (heaven and earth), yin and yang 陰陽 (the dual principle in Chinese philosophy), and li and qi 理氣 (principle and matter). The works of Zhu Xi 朱熹 (1130–1200) and Zhang Zai 長載 (1020–1077) and the Xingli daquan 性理大全 (compiled in 1415 by order of the Yongle emperor, cf. Jap-Sin II, 89) are quoted occasionally.

On the cover there is a Latin inscription: “Lib. mutationum I-king (alia ed.).”

On the title page the following inscription is given: 康熙癸酉新鐫丹陽吳蓀右，丁柯亭，吳南騶三先生彙輯，周易正解，翻印千里必究. On the left of the folio a summary of the book is given.
At the beginning of the first juan there is a preface by Wu Ruilin 吳瑞麟, zi Nanzou 南騶, dated 23 September 1692 (康熙壬甲中秋前二日). It is then followed by an introduction and a table of contents: 辨異，上下篇義，易說鋼領，周易五贊，周易圖目，太極圖說，河洛圖說，摩盪圖說，先天圖說，後天圖說，相得有合圖，卦變圖說，筮儀，明占法，昌學源流總論，周易本義卦歌.
There are ten columns in each half folio. The main text consists of twenty-seven large characters to each column, while the 衍義，發明 (exposition and scholia) are given in twenty-six characters to each column. Annotations are given in double lines and in smaller print.
From the setup of the book it seems that the purpose of its publication was mainly directed to students who were preparing for the civil examinations. It was quite common in the late Ming and early Qing periods for publishers to invite scholars of some reputation to compile books for students who were to take civil examinations.

One must not confuse this with another book with the same title, in twenty juan, the author of which is Hao Jing 郝敬, a native of Jingshan 京山 (Huguang). He obtained the jinshi degree in 1589 (Wanli 17); cf. SKTY 1:145. For Wu Quan, see Jap-Sin I, 26.
In regard to the studio Sishu tang (its name is found on the middle of each folio), there are ten of them, as far as we know. Perhaps there may be more, if we have the time and patience to look for them; cf. Chen Naiqian 陳乃乾, Ziming biehao suoyin 字名別號索引 (Beijing, 1982), p. 219; Chen Deyun 陳德芸, Gujin renwu bieming suoyin 古今人物別名索引 (Canton, 1937; repr. Taipei, 1965), p. 209.
