sovereigns of the house of Brandenbourg, executed in the manner of Cochin's tailpieces for the "Abregé" of Président Henault) after Schley (13), B.

Frédéric II. Le Palladion, poême en 6 chants. Au Donjon

du Château, 1750, 6 plates, 6 head and 6 tailpieces after G. J. Schmidt. This héroi-comic poem, written in imitation of "La Puelle," forms vol. 1 of the "Euvres du Philosophe de Sans Souci." Most of the copies having been suppressed, it has become very rare; it was reprinted in 1752, with the omission on the title of the words, "Au Donjon du Château." Proofs before letters are almost unobtainable. Freemasonry. Assemblée de Francs-Maçons pour la Reception des Maîtres, Assemblée de Francs-Maçons pour la Reception des Apprentifs.
