The Laval parts (Valleguidonensis) have been published by A. Mary-Beauchene in Laval (1884); and printed by Mame in Tours. The head work is entirely printed in red & black, each page within a red typobraphical borderline. [Binding]. Uniformy bound in full red morocco, raised spines with gilt titles, all edges gilt, Gilt fillet on the board edges, Both covers with the supra libro of bishop Victor Maréchal with his motto ''Vita et Spes''. A splendid set, perfectly preserved. [Provenance]. From a calligraphed entry on the half-title of the first part we learn that the ''Breviarium'' was presented by the priests of the ''Canton de Montfort L'Amaury'' which was a part of the diocese of Versailles. This occured most probably on the occasion of the ordination of Victor Maréchal as bishop of the diocese of Laval; in Versailles on 25 july 1887. The unfortunate bishop however died within less than 2 months of his ordination (died 21 september 1887). He probably hardly ever touched his breviarium gift. Two further Latin notes reveal that the book was received by Aug. Maria Batard, priest in Laval who donated the work in 1917 to the monastary of Saint Julian in Chateau Gonthier. A third note states that the work belonged afterwards to Mother Superior of the nunnery of ''Misericorda Iesu'' in the monatary's hospital. (For the supra libro; see Aymond de Saint-Saud : ''Armorial des prélats français du XIX siècle''.) A beautifull and finely preserved example of an expensive liturgical book of the 19th c. Roman Catholic Church. It demonstrates, in a way, the resurgence of the French Church after the devastating blow of the French Revolution."‎
