‎" Paris, chez Adrian Perier, ruë S. Iacques au Compas, (printer François Du Carroy), 1606, 2 vols in-4°, 24 x 16,5 cm, [1] (16)nn pp + 757 pp + (29) nn pp (index), [2] (8)nn pp + 643 pp + (13)nn pp (first and last blank). Vol. 1 ends with the leaf Fffii (fin du supplement de l'indice) lacks probably leaf iii & iv, presumably blank. Bound in somewhat later (18th c. ?) half leather, boards covered with marbled paper. edges painted red, with green and red leather title labels. Top turn- in of one volume damaged and partly missing. Last pages of vol. 1 with some old clear waterstains. Still a nice set of a very rare book. This edition of the works by Plutarchus was made by Jacques Amyot (1513 - 1593). The preface ( l'avis au lecteurs) is written by S.G.S. ( Simon Goulart senlisien). The work was printed by François du Corroy as indicated on pp (756) of volume 1. The copy of this work at the BN-Paris has the publisher's name R.Fouet. The only 2 other copies listed on USTC (Edinburgh and Illinois) don't mention a publisher. Our copy is published by Adrien Périer. He was brother of book dealer Jérémie Périer and had previously worked for the book seller Abraham Pacard. In 1599 he married Madeleine Plantin, daughter of the Antwerp printer publisher Christophe Plantin. ( She was previously married until his death to Gilles Beys). Hence the wood-engraved printer's mark on the title page ''Labore et Constantia''; copied after the famous Antwerp example."‎
