At Claude Micard's at Clos Bruneau in La Bonne Foy 1585 With Privilège du Roy Philippe de Mornay, sieur du Plessis-Marly (1549-1623), was one of the most illustrious representatives of reform in France. The testimonies of historians are unanimous on the account of this great statesman who was also a religious man and a character like few come across. The Catholics themselves did justice to the “Pope of the Huguenots”.  A man of action as well as great erudition, he was a close advisor to Henri IV, for whom he carried out numerous important diplomatic missions in France and abroad.  Although the king gradually detached himself from him after his abjuration, Mornay nevertheless actively contributed to the preparation of the Edict of Nantes (1593). His treatise On the Truth of the Christian Religion describes the main foundations of the Christian faith in accordance with Protestant precepts.   Regarding the condition, note some yellowed, discolored, stained areas, freckles, numerous tears, small holes, faded colors, annotations and underlined pieces of text.
