Notes
Collection of six songs followed by calendar listing the saints' days for the year.
Entirely engraved; illustrated with six full-page engravings, each preceding the text of a song.
Grand-Carteret identifies the work as containing 12 engraved illustrations rather than 6, a possible mistake repeated by Welsh, although the partial contents given by Grand-Carteret as well as desciptions of other copies of Marcilly's 1842 edition of "Le petit chansonnier" appear to correspond to the Morgan Library copy described here.
Item housed in an archival clamshell box with PML 195839.
