notes:
The Franciscan province of San Pedro y San Pablo de Michoacán was established in 1565. Brother Jacob Dacian, Jacob the Dane, or, in Latin, Jacobus de Dacia was a Danish Franciscan monk who was sent to Mexico where he learned several indigenous languages and founded several convents. He spent three years at the Colegio de Santa Cruz de Tlatelolco studying Nahuatl before being sent to Michoacán to work among the P'urhépecha Indians, where the bulk of his missionary work was done. Fra Martin on the title page may refer to Martin de la Coruña, one of the "twelve Franciscan apostles of Mexico."
