Entrée magnifique de BACCHUS avec Madame DIMANCHE GRASSE sa femme, Faicte en la ville de LYON, le 24 février 1627. Nouvelle édition enrichie de notes et de vignettes. Tiré à 50 exemplaries.
In-8° (cm. 23,5x15,2), pp. 47 (di cui IX introduttive in cifre romane con 4 grandi elaborate VIGNETTE xilografiche nel testo (capolettera, finalino, 2 emblemi con motti) e la marca editoriale al front. e in cop. Brossura editoriale, titolo entro filetto, testo entro filetto, nelle sue barbe, lievi fioriture, parzialmente sciolto. "Cette petite composition est un monument de l'humeur joyeusa de nos pères... pièce peu commune",. Canto carnascialesco anonimo,presentato della'editore, "un arrière petit-neveu du Docteur Matanasius". Descrive in versi e nei dettagli il corteo di Bacco quelo della Domenica Grassa con le sue Dame d'Onore (tra cui la Pucelle d'Orléans), e infne, Le Mont de PARNASSE con 9 lavandaie in luogo di Muse, e il "Charriot de Musique Douce, conduit par le PORC sellé, et la TRUIE qui file". Ogni figurante è descritto e spiegato nelle ampie NOTE e costituiscono precisi riferimenti, oltre che mitologici, a locali, alberghi e osterie, al VINO e ai cibi grassi, e a personaggi lionesi del tempo. Questo Saturnale fu giudicato scandaloso e alla sua empietà fu attribuita la peste che l'anno dopo, 1628, imperversò in Lione. L'editore però fa presente che la mascherata del 1627, pur impudica, non oltraggiava né il clero né le cose sante. Un libraio che ne offre nel web un esemplare (unito a un altro poemetto coevo - a prezzo ben più che ragguardevole - Webster's Bookstore Cafe) lo attribuisce a un Louis Garon (Genève 1574 - 1631) scrittore lionese autore di facezie. Ovviamente rarissimo, ignoto a sbn
