These two volumes, issued 8vo, 1659, bear the bogus imprint, “À Cologne, chez Nicholas Schoute.” They had first appeared in Paris in 1656. Pascal died in 1662. “Recueil de diverses pièces servans à l’histoire de Henry III.” 12mo. Bogus imprint, “À Cologne, chez P. du Marteau”. 1660 Treatises of Hippocrates, in Greek and Latin. 12mo. 1661 The widow of John continued the business for twenty years, from 1661 to 1681. During this period she issued or printed forty-seven works. These included: “The Bible,” printed in Dutch, in a handsome folio volume. 1663 “Mémoires Maréschal de Bassompierre.” 2 vols. 12mo. 1665 “À Cologne, chez Pierre du Marteau.” “Hippocrates,” complete works, in Latin. The first edition issued to this date. 24mo. 1666 Abraham Elzevir, with whose life was terminated the record of the Leyden House, carried on the business for thirty-one years, from 1681 to 1712, during which time he printed but twenty-three works. The last twenty years were devoted, as stated, entirely to the printing of theses, the publishing business having gradually been allowed to rust out. His publications and printings included: “Bibliotheca Heinsiana,” a catalogue of the collection of Nicholas Heinsius. Epictetus, the “Enchiridion” of, in Latin, and various Funeral Orations and Memorial addresses on William III., of England, who died in 1702. Louis Elzevir, the second of the name, initiated, in 1638, the publishing business of the Amsterdam House, which he conducted until 1655, when he was joined by his cousin Daniel, from Leyden. During these seventeen years he published one hundred and eighty works. His first publication belonged to a lighter class of literature than had previously been associated with the Elzevir imprint. It bore the title: _Dominici Baudii Amores, edente Petro Scriverio, inscripti. Th. Graswinkelio, equiti._ 12mo. 1638. It comprised a series of letters and views in which Baudius gives an account of his various amorous misadventures. Willems speaks of the work as originating in Holland, but I do not understand that it could very well have been the work of the Baudius who held the Chair of History in Leyden up to 1613. “Renati Descartes, Meditationes de primo-philosophia,” etc. 2 vols. 1642 On the title-page of the second volume appear the words _cum authoris concensu._ Hooft’s “Nederlandsche Historien,” etc. Folio. 2 vols. This work was the most important of the Dutch national histories which had thus far appeared. Although published by Elzevir, it was printed by Blaen, who was a connection of the author. The first volume was issued in 1642, and the last only in 1654. The author died in 1647.
