BOILEAU-DESPREAUX, Nicolas (1636–1711). L.A.S. „Despreaux“, 6. Februar 1701, an Charles-René d’HOZIER; 1 Seite in-8, mit Anschrift. Er schickt ihm das Buch „De confessione auriculari“. „Ich bin Ihnen sehr zu Dank verpflichtet für die Mühe, die Sie sich machen, um bei Monsieur de CAUMARTIN für mich zu werben. Das Interesse, das er meinem Kummer entgegenbringt, ist das Einzige, was mich trösten und mich mein Bußgewand sanft tragen lassen kann, selbst wenn es aus Archalfaden wäre. Ich werde es nicht versäumen, ihm in gebührender Form zu danken und auch Ihnen, sobald mein Buch [Satiren] fertig ist, was jedoch frühestens in fünfzehn Tagen oder drei Wochen der Fall sein dürfte“…
