Note

This was printed at the shop run by Gabriel Cotier, who died in 1565. His widow continued his publishing business after his death, (which her dowry had financed in the first place) and continued to issue texts 'à l'ecu de Milan' (under the Milanese shield), the sign that had distinguished her husband's business. See Natalie Zemon Davis, 'Women in the Crafts in Sixteenth-Century Lyon', in Women and Work in Preindustrial Europe, ed. by Barbara A. Hanawalt (Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1986), p. 184.
