Nous avons apporté à cette publication le soin dont nous avons tâché de donner des preuves dans nos travaux précédents; c'est dire que nous avons collationné très scrupuleusement le texte sur le manuscrit de la Bibliothèque du Roi. Si nous nous en sommes écarté, c'est en plaçant entre crochets des additions écrites sur les marges qui nous feraient penser que le manuscrit dont nous nous sommes servi est original eta dû appartenir. À une époque plus ou moins éloignée, à l'abbaye de saint-ouen. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
