A rare collection of miscellaneous works that a contemporary enthusiast had bound into a volume, and which he supplemented, in homage to the poet, with the following platelet:
G. AUBERT DE POICTIERS. Élégie sur le Trespas de feu Joach. Du-Bellay.
Paris, Federic Morel, 1561 (4 f.) / A4.
The text of the
Tumulus Henrici secundi is complete, but it should include 2 additional leaves, which are missing here. On the other hand, Tchemerzine lists 2 unnumbered leaves for the
Monomachie, as in the previous edition, but Scheler indicates that the text is indeed complete with the
Ode à Phoebus and that these two leaves are probably not part of the edition. Finally, according to Scheler,
L'Olive and
Divers jeux rustiques are not two separate editions, but a single one.
Chipped calf with old restorations, partial discoloration and beginning of crack at one hinge.
