French laws. The _first_ seems, indeed, to have disappeared altogether.
M. Crapelet, Etudes sur la typographie, 34-37, reproduces the _second_,
dated St. Germain-en-Laye, February 23, 1534/5, from a volume of
parliamentary papers labelled "Conseil." Happily, the preamble recites
the cardinal prescription of the previous and lost edict, as given above
in the text. M. Merle d'Aubigne carelessly places the edict abolishing
printing _after_, instead of _before_, the great expiatory procession.

[Footnote 347: The _name_ and the _affliction_ of this first victim give
Martin Theodoric of Beauvais an opportunity, which he cannot neglect, to
compare him with a pagan malefactor and contrast him with a biblical
personage. "Hunc gladium ultorem persenserunt quam plurimi degeneres et
alienigenae in flexilibus perversarum doctrinarum semitis obambulantes;
inter alios, _paralyticus Lutheranus Neroniano Milone perniciosior_. Cui
malesano opus erat salutifer Christus, ut _sublato erroris grabato, viam
