Additional Information

Some symbols are not deciphered. At least some of them are insignificant (because of cancelling symbols). The volume includes some other letters partly in cipher addressed to Brulart de Leon (f.20, f.168, f.184, f.283, f.315). 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).
