Translation by Joseph Harris of Les fables de Pilpay (1698), which purported to be a French translation of the Kahi lah wa-Dimnah by Gilbert Gaulmin and Dāūd Saīd Isfahānī, but was actually their translation of the first four chapters of the Persian Anvar i Suhayli.

Early engraved armorial bookplate (shield with chevron and three garbs or sheaves, probably Deschamps's arms), traces of an early inscription erased.

Contemporary diced calf binding, spine with five raised bands, gilt, with pomegranate tools and green morocco label.
