a little browned and minor staining, pp. 8, 8vo, marbled wrappers, upper cover nearly detached, bookplate of Colonel Victor De Guinzbourg, sound. We have not been able to locate another copy of this small collection: not in WorldCat, not in BNF, not in BL, &c. The surname of the author exists as such, but it seems too good to be… true. The collection is mordant, with occasional nods to piety.
