L'Histoire des nobles et vaillans chevaliers nommez Milles, et Amis: lesquels en leur vivant furent plains de grandes proüesses.

Rouen, Chez la Vefue de Louys Costé, Ruë Escuyere, à L'Enseigne Des Trois Couronnées. 1630. Cuir / Leather, 14cm x 18,5cm. Livre, s.d. (circa 1630). 140 ff. Reliure moderne, en parfaite condition, en cuir, avec dos à 5 nerfs, dorures et ornements. Réparation sur la page titre, autrement les pages intérieures sont en très bonne condition, propres et solides. ÉDITION TRÈS RARE. Seul un exemplaire situé à la Bibliothèque Nationale de France a été trouvé. Ce Roman est un constant hommage rendu à l'amitié, dans la personne de deux chevaliers, nés le même jour, dans le même pays, avec des traits et des formes semblables, des sentiments, des caractères pareils, sous une étoile commune. L'auteur commence d'un style édifiant. « Pour l'honneur et révérence de la Trinité et de la court célestielle de paradis, moi confiant l'infusion du benoît Saint-Esprit, lequel donne et influé sa grâce où il lui plait, ay entrepris d'escrire une histoire des faicts advenus à la louange de deux vaillans chevaliers nommez Milles et Amys. » S'ensuivent 114 chapitres surchargés d'aventures. Photos disponibles sur demande. // Modern calf, covers with gilt border and inside corner ornaments, gilt spine on 5 raised bands, [140] ff. (age-toned). Very good copy on coarse paper. Extremely rare Rouen edition of an adaptation of the medieval story of Amis and Amyles (Amile). Physically identical, Ami and Amile are spiritual twins, conceived and born on the same day; their meeting is preordained, and together they go to serve Charlemagne. The allegorically named Ami substitutes without anyone's knowledge for Amile in a judicial duel, which Amile cannot fight himself because he knows that he is guilty, as accused, of having slept with the emperor's daughter. Ami swears his innocence and wins. Charlemagne, believing it is Amile who is innocent, proceeds to betroth the daughter to him; Ami, who cannot now reveal his true identity, accepts her. As he is already married, God punishes his prospective bigamy by afflicting him with leprosy. His wife drives him away from home. After years of illness, he meets Amile again, who learns from an angel that he can cure Ami only by bathing him in the blood of his own children. With some misgivings Amile cuts his young sons' throats, Ami is healed, and a miracle restores the children to life. The friendship of the 2 heroes surpasses all other social relationships in the text to such an extent that in the end all other ties are abandoned and the friends leave France together. Title within double border of type ornaments. Woodcut illustration on title and one in text. Printed in 2 cols. Bookpl.: Edward Davenport, [Heilbrun], W L G. / Ref. BN Paris (1). Not in Goldsmith (BL London), Le livre populaire etc. // Photos available upon request. Bonne condition.
