Édition originale du troisième recueil de vers d'Olivier de Magny. Enthousiasmé par les Folastries ronsardiennes parues l'année précédente, le poète quercinois livre ici un recueil de poésies légères dans lequel l'influence de Ronsard est prégnante. Sa publication, durant l'été 1554, précède de quelques mois le départ de Magny pour Rome, où il séjournera dix-neuf mois et deviendra l'ami de Du Bellay. À son retour d'Italie, il publiera les Souspirs puis les Odes. Cioranesco, p. 450 ; Brunet, III, 1303 ; J. P. Barbier-Mueller, MBP, IV-3, 50 (« rareté bibliophilique ») ; Tchemerzine, IV, 262 (« petit opuscule extrêmement rare ») ; Greuze, Dictionnaire des lettres françaises, XVIe siècle, p. 473.
