    Aesop Dress'd or a Collection of Fables Writ in Familiar Verse 

    Mandeville, Bernard (Original: London: Lock's-Head. Reprint: Los Angeles: The Augustan Reprint Society Publication Number 120: William Andrews Clark Memorial Library., 1704)
    Thirty-eight fables, almost all from LaFontaine, done in couplets apparently based on the rhythms of Samuel Butler. They move along swiftly enough. LaFontaine is clearly behind this work. I first found this pamphlet ...

    Fables de La Fontaine: Tome Premier. Avec les figures d'Oudry dans l'édition Desaint et Saillant de 1755 

    No Author (Jean de Bonnot, 1755)
    Back in 1988 in Paris I had found the knockoff version of this first volume along the Seine. Now I am delighted to have found the whole set. If there is a drawback to this exquisite set of volumes, it lies in their size: ...

    Fables Choisies, mises en vers par M de la Fontaine 

    Coste, Pierre; La Fontaine, Jean de (Aux dépens des Libraires associés, 1790)
    This long-lived little volume comes as a gift from old collector friends. It includes the first seven books of La Fontaine's fables in addition to the usual introductory material. It is very close, for these seven books, ...

    Recueil de Fables Choisies Dans le Goût de M. De la Fontaine 

    La Fontaine, Jean de (Chez PH.N. Lottin & J.H. Butard, 1749)
    The title continues Sur de petits airs & Vaudevilles connus notés à la fin pour en faciliter le chant. Not in Bodemann. Six books of fables on 322 small (2½ x 5) pages. Notice that both the texts and the organization ...

    Fabulae Selectae Fontanii e Gallico in Latinum Sermonem Conversae 

    Girard, Jean-Baptiste; La Fontaine, Jean de (Lud. Le Boucher et Laurent. Duesnil, 1775)
    What a kick! This book contains virtually all of La Fontaine's fables done into Latin for schoolboys by a priest of the Oratory. I have tried a few of the fables, and the Latin is good! Since the text is bilingual, one ...

    Fabulae Selectae Fontanii e Gallico in Latinum Sermonem Conversae 

    Girard, Jean-Baptiste; La Fontaine, Jean de (Laurent DumesnilLud. Le Boucher et Laurent. Duesnil, 1775)
    See my overall comments on the first volume. From the last six books of La Fontaine, these fables are left out: the daughter who rejects suitors and finally desperately accepts a lout (VII 5); Thyrsis who tries to profess ...

    Fables Choisies, mises en vers par M de la Fontaine 

    Coste, Pierre; La Fontaine, Jean de (Chez Veuve Douladoure, 1793)
    A lovely old book, rebound, with one small rural scene on 1 and notes at the bottom of almost every page. The pages are rough at their edges and non-uniform in size. I think the salesperson was just telling me that they ...
