Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

2 June 1717 (from Paris): “La rareté de l’argent a fait que nous avons tous les bons graveurs de Paris et à bon marché. Nous faisons faire pour dix écus, ce que nous n’aurions pas fait pour quarante, il y a quatre ans. Ainsi c’est ce qui fait qu’on aura le livre à beaucoup meilleur marché. Les libraires disent qu’il y a quatre ans, ils n’auraient pas pu mettre les souscriptions à moins de quatre ou cinq cent livres” (Capitaine 1855, no. 11).
