Printed in Paris by the widow of Jean Trepperel and Jean Jehannot.

Jehannot styles himself ‘libraire et imprimeur’ in the colophon, which suggests a date before January 1515 when he became imprimeur juré; the presence of a quire number on the title page suggests 1514 at the earliest, as this practice seems to occur from about that date.
