"Publio Fausto Andrelini (ca. 1462-1518) was an Italian humanist poet, an 
intimate friend of Erasmus in the 1490s, who spread the New Learning in 
France. He taught at the University of Paris as 'Professor of Humanity' from 
1489... and became a court poet in the circle around Anne of Brittany, the queen 
to two kings." Wikipedia. OCLC locates two copies of the 1519 edition. See 
Renouard. BIBLIOG. DE BADIUS ASCENSIUS, II.p. 32.
