A 1655 Greek grammar in French by Claude Lancelot, printed in Paris by Antoine Vitré for the bookseller Pierre Le Petit, written to teach Greek declensions, conjugations and syntax to French readers. Its pictures are letterpress grammar tables with bracketed Greek case columns and small woodcut ornaments such as a book-and-shield tailpiece and a floral cluster, useful for designers wanting early typographic tabulation and vintage printer's ornament.
