"A disciple of Alain de La Roche, Guillaume Pépin (Evreux?-1533), like Jean Nider and Saint Vincent Ferrier, arrived at preaching originalities that found him readers well into the 17th century. It's hardly surprising that Pépin enjoyed great fame. It was said that "Anyone who wants to form a good sermon must take a lesson from Pépin".
Uncommon 2-column gothic printing by Nicolas Savetier; the 2 titles are printed in red and black within a vignette frame. Small wormholes on the first few leaves, Jesuit stamp on the last leaf of the liminaries, a few freckles, small galls on the vellum (DTC p. 1185) (USTC 185050, no ex.).
