ADMIRABLE DRUGS (The) of the wonderful operator,... - Lot 141 - Giquello
ADMIRABLE DRUGS (The) of the wonderful operator, of the undiscovered Isles of the Invisible Kingdoms, arrived in this city for the fair in Paris. Paris, Martin Henry, 1615. 14-page in-12 leaflet, unbound. Extremely rare and spiritual satire, burlesque enumeration in the minds of the fairgoers. Among the drugs offered to shoppers, let us quote a water of mauvaize grace & ugliness to heal charms, a dilation of calf's foot to know how to do reverence & to make flowers to play tabourine, a Sirot deiglade to soften the fierce hands, an Ointment of Daristot night cap fat, & the sweat of the Socrates slippers, to make Galimatias speak, the Feather Root of Coquou, to heal the jealous, the Common hen's ass seed, to teach the elderly to make the little mouth, or the Monkey ass Esprainte, to heal the pelad! Light wetness, small holes at the seam.
