Kathleen Borsari asked:

Less practically, in case anyone is interested in the _ipsissima 
verba_ of Erasmus himself, the 1547 edition of his dialogue _De recta 
latini graecique sermonis pronuntiatione_ is available for (free) 
download in either TIFF or PDF format (150 pages; 8.1MB in both 
formats) from:
