The last page features an intaglio portrait of the Duc de La Valette by Thomas de Leu, with the following quatrain: "A l'honneur de mon Dieu, et l'estat de mon Roy // Je devouay mon ame, et consacraye ma vÿe // Si le sort et la mort triumphèrent de moy // Mon courage et ma foy triumphent de l'enuye".
