Frankfurt, apud Petrum Mareschallum, 1624; small in 4°, brown half-basin, ribbed spine, repeated fleuron on spine, red edges. 19th century binding. A fine edition, featuring a handsome engraved title in a remarkable architectural frame and 100 copper-engraved circular figures by Matthaus Merian, each accompanied by a quatrain in French and, opposite, an explanation in Latin.
