Fish, fish ponds, and fishing considered. 



The above seems to be the first French ed. 

 Forty other eds. have been noted as follows: 17 

 French, 1565-1668; 8 German. 1579-1607; 6 

 Itahan, 1581-1677; 6 Dutch, 1566-1627; 3 Eng- 

 lish, 1600^1616. However, according to Brunet, 

 30 eds. (presumably in French) were published 

 at Paris, Lyons and elsewhere between 1591 and 

 1702. Estienne's work was replaced in 1700 by 

 Liger. (g. v.) Some foreign language versions 

 follow:

"Charles Estienne or Stevens was a member 

 of the celebrated family of Paris printers and 

 scholars of that name, and was himself a printer 

 and physician. His work appears to have been 

 published after he had ceased to print. The 

 treatises, of which it is composed, were originally 

 written in Latin and collected under the title, 

 'Prgedium rusticum.' The author afterwards 

 translated them into French under the title given 

 above. John Liebault, by whom the work was 

 augmented, was his son-in-law." — W. & S.

 Catalogue British Museum (Natural History), 

 vol. II. The first edition of the completed work 

 appeared in 1554.

Pre-Linn. 1629.1 



In his comments on the work of the "6 days" 

 of the first chapter of Genesis, he refers to the 

 scisena, scarus, echeneis, and the thresher shark. 



This seems to be a translation with comments 

 of a similar work by Saint Basil, and is found in- 

 the works of the latter; Paris, 1603, & Antwerp, 

 1616. It is available today in Migne, J. P. 

 Patrologiae Graecse, Paris, 1847, vol. Liii (Latin); 

 & Paris, 1857, vol. xvrii (Greek and Latin in 

 parallel columns). By some the "Hexameron" 

 is accounted a spurious work.
