Chez Guillaume de Luyne à Paris 1663 14 x 8.50 cm relié Second edition published a few months after the first edition this second edition has the merit of containing tributes by Saint Aignan Scudery Bertault Ménard. Contemporary binding in full porphyry calf. Spine with four raised bands decorated with gilt compartments and fleurons as well as a red morocco title-label. Double gilt fillet framing the covers.

Billaut became the protégé of the Prince de Condé was pensioned by Richelieu and admired by his peers. If his poetry shines little through elegance in a century that was full of it his language is full of verve and originality and his collections make him one of the very first poets of the 17th century one of those whose language is always appreciated devoid of affectation and unnecessary ornaments.
