Side note: Authoritative for the edition of Philipp Melanchthon's Chronica Carionis Expositum et auctum multis et veteribus et recentibus historii was hardly Johannes Carion's revised Chronica Carionis from 1532 nor was it Melanchthon himself but Melanchthon's son-in-law Caspar Peucer, editor of the revised world history known to us. The 1st German edition is, thus, the one of Wittemberg 1565 (Georg Rhaw), followed by the 2nd of Wittenberg 1583 (Zacharias Lehmann), i.e. 5 resp. 23 years after the death of Melanchthon. It is, however, nearly impossible to assign the "Essei ... / wircken" (ie 'to take effect' in the sense of 'acting') passage to one of the above three redactors unerringly.
