Forms v. 5 of Honoré d'Urfé's L'Astrée.

In this edition, the 1st leaf of sheet ã is a half-title; line 2 of the imprint ends "carre-"; Tchemerzine (X, p. 442) reproduces t.-p. of an edition in which ã1 is blank and line 2 of the imprint ends "carrefour de". Auguste Bernard in "Recherches bibliographiques sur le roman d'Astrée" (Bull. du bibl., 1859, p. [531]-558) and Tchemerzine both state that Pomeray divided the privilege with Courbé and Sommaville; Bernard describes the agreement for this division as following that of Baro with Pomeray. In the present edition the Baro-Pomeray agreement occurs on prelim. leaves 15 verso & 16; the agreement for the division of the privilege is not included.

Bernard describes the engr. t.-p. as by Claude David after Rabel, the port. of d'Urfé as signed by J. Briot, that of Astrée as re-engraved by Briot, and that of Baro as by M. Lasne after Ferdinand. In the present edition none of the engravings are signed, but signatures may have been cropped from the t.-p. and port. of Baro.
