Traduction d'vne epistre latine d'vn excellent personnage de ce royaume, faicte par forme de discours, sur aucunes choses depuis peu de temps advenues en France.
A 1573 Paris printing by Frédéric Morel of a French translation of a Latin letter by Guy du Faur, seigneur de Pibrac, addressed to a French readership on recent events in France. The two pictures are bookplates from the Newberry Library's collection: an oval library seal showing a bust on a pedestal, and a rectangular ex libris with a shield of arms set in a Gothic-style border with lettering reading EX LIBRIS ROB. DE BILLY. Both are crisp black line designs suited to label, seal, or emblem work, with the bust and the heraldic shield offering strong centred motifs and the framing borders providing ready-made ornamental structure.
