Manuscript on paper of 1) Noël de Fribois (d. 1467/1468), Abrégé des croniques de France, presented to King Charles VII of France in 1459. 2) Simon Gréban (d. ca. 1473), Epitaph for King Charles VII (1461). 3) Moral aphorisms in the form of distichs. 4) Moral aphorisms in French after the manner of the Disticha Catonis, perhaps by the same author as art. 3. 5) Catalogue of the library of Jaspar Scaeck, apparently a lawyer in northern France (Lille?). The 57 books, listed without a clear order, are almost all in French and were printed between 1534 and 1595, with one book dated 1495; they mostly were produced in Paris, Lyons, Douai and Antwerp. For each the owner gives a full transcription of the title page, reproducing its layout (exceptionnally also the colophon); for the last two items also a note on the binding.
