About this work

Description

Le singe: po?me latin...Traduit par M.D.R.L. With other verses, epigrams, etc., by later Authors. M.D.R.L. may possibly stand for the initials of Fran?ois VI de la Rochefoucauld [1613-1680]. 'Le singe' ends at fol. 31, and is dated 1704. Among the following verses the undermentioned are of medical interest: Fol. 45 [Anon.] Sur Cristofle Ozane [sic] M?decin de Chaudray. This is Christofle Ozanne [1633-1713]. Ff. 62-64 [Duhamel (J.).] Traduction de l'ode latine...sur le Cidre. A marginal note dated 1712, states that the Author was 'Professeur de Rh?torique au Col[l]?ge des Grassins'. Ff. 69-73 [Guibert] Nouvel chanson sur le Caf?. A note below the text states: 'Le P?re G[uibert] de l'Oratoire fait imprimer depuis peu un chanson sur le caf? on 1710, dont celle-ci est comme Sup[p]l?ment.' Ff. 77-79 [Castel (L. B.)] Le Clavecin des couleurs du P. C. transport? dans le Monde de la Lune la nuit du 19. 8bre 1726. A marginal note states: 'Le P[?re Louis Bertrand] Castel [1688-1757] a pr?tendu qu'on pouvoit faire avec des Couleurs le m?me effet que par les sens sur un clavecin.'This last item seems to be written by a different hand. On the first leaf is the name 'Thevenin' in a late 18th cent. hand.
