Additional Information

Some passages are not deciphered. The uploader could not read them with the reconstructed key. They may be partially or totally nulls. The volume includes many other letters partly in cipher addressed to Brulart de Leon by Louis XIII, Marie de Medicis, or Puysieux. For contemporary French ciphers (including the key to this cipher), see S. Tomokiyo, "French Ciphers during the Reign of Louis XIII" (http://cryptiana.web.fc2.com/code/louisxiii.htm).
