NEW EDITION.

describes what is in these five volumes: Volume One

: contains Letter to the Duc de Saint-Aignan (12 November 1665) History love Gallic (contains all the usual texts, History of Madame de Sevigny (ie Sevigne), History of the loves of Madame de Monglas the Maxims love ). It is also at the end of the translation of epigrams by Martial Bussy-Rabutin. Curiously are advertised in the leaflet table a "life of Bussy" early and "Hours Bussy " at the end, which are not there (!!), without apparent lack. Our copy is in all respects consistent with that of Google Books digitized copy and Rothschild (see photo record Rothschild).

Second volume: Contains "The Royal Palace or the loves of Madame de la Valière and others. "" The rout and the farewell of prostitutes in the city & suburbs of Paris, etc., and the motion of Mr. La Valière. "" The Princess and the loves of Madame. , "" Juno, or the loves of Madame de Bagneux. "," False or prudish Madame de Brancas love, and other ladies of the court. "" Old love ".

Third volume: Contains "The Loves of the Marshal de la Ferte. "" France gallantry or love of Madame de Montespan, etc.. "" The parrot or love of Mademoiselle. .

Fourth volume: Contains "The Hobby Royal or loves Mademoiselle de Fontange. "" Follow the gallant France or the loves of Madame de Maintenon, on new memories very curious. "" The royal divorce or civil war in the family of Grand Alcandre. .

Fifth and last volume contains "France has become the latest Italian with disorders of the court. "" Loves of the Dauphin, with the Countess of Rourre. "

Gay in his Bibliography of books on women and love indicates that this impression would be to Paris, at Grange (??), we found no other source on this. The impression seems to us, however well out of the Dutch press.

Source: "Library Luc Le Roy, Advocate. "This label dates undoubtedly the early nineteenth century or even the extreme end of the eighteenth century, which confirms our dating binding and probably indicates a first owner, perhaps the sponsor of the binding. All volumes this label attached to the inside cover. We then see the first white guard (back), the rectangular stamp in blue ink: ANGERVILLE. The stamp must date from the 1820s to 1850, probably no closer to us.
