TABOUROT (Etienne). [WORKS]. 5 volumes, all published with their title pages. Paris: Jean Richer, 1614–15. A substantial in-12 volume, black morocco (early 20th-century binding). 1. *Des Bigarrures du Seigneur des Accords*. [12]-222 folios. Medallions and numerous small drawings for the rebuses. Portrait and one folded plate. 2. Le quatriesme des bigarrures. [4]–50 folios, poorly numbered. Portrait. 3. Les contes facétieux du Sieur Gaulard. 59–[1] folios. Portrait. 4. The Dijon Escraignes. 60 folios. 5. The Touches of the Lord of the Accords. 64 folios. A facetious collection, a blend of erudition and obscenities, begun at the age of 18. This is a valuable work for the history of poetry, as it offers a wealth of anagrams, rebuses, spoonerisms, puns, and all manner of verse then in use. Numerous woodcuts within the text illustrate the section devoted to rebuses. The tales are adorned with a portrait of Sieur Gaulard. A few handwritten annotations from the period. (Gay I, 397).
