Description
Excerpt from The Heptameron of Margaret, Queen of Navarre: Translated From the French, With a Memoir of the Author
Joan d''albret, only daughter of Queen Margaret. Had the work been supposititious, it is incredible that Gruget should have thus addressed the princess: Such a present will not be new to you; you will only recognise it as your mother''s heiress. However, I persuade myself that it will be accept able to you. To see it by this second impression restored to its primitive state; for (as I have heard) the first displeased you; not but that he who undertook it was a learned man, and had taken pains with it, and, as is easy to believe, would not have thus disguised it without some reason for doing so; yet his labour proved disagreeable.
