French political songs and pasquinades of the period of Louis XIII and XIV, with musical notes, and occasional marginal commentary

Many are contained also in Egerton MS 814-817 and King's MS 330-337. In most cases the words are preceded by the tunes to which they are to be sung, which, when named, are given below. The chansons to be sung to the same air are generally strung together, as if forming one. They are all unaccompanied. The dates given in square brackets are taken from Egerton MS 814-817. In three volumes.
