notes
The first of these titles is mentioned in the list of Michel-Charles Le Cène’s bequest, Amsterdam, 1743, and the second in Selhof, Nicolas, Catalogue d’une très belle bibliothèque de livres, Den Haag, Moetjens, 1759 (edizione facsimile: Amsterdam, Knuf, 1973)., p. 209, no. 2170/71. It must be assumed that they both refer to the same collection of pièces .
