A treatise on Sorcery, in French, with special reference to the decisions of the Parlement de Rouen and the king's supersession of them, apparently in about 1675, written in the last quarter of the 17th cent.

The work, which is in three parts and written in several hands, is freely corrected apparently by the author, and is not quite perfect. The first chapter beg. 'La difference qu'il y a entre le parlement de Paris.' The author may be 'magister Leger doctor medicus' (p. vi, cf. 690v: possibly Antoine Léger who died in 1719): some copies of independent documents on the same subject follow at p. 631.
