French translation has special title page: La Sarcothée. Poëme traduit du Latin du R.P. Masenius de la Compagnie de Jesus. Par M. l'abbé Dinouart. A Londres, et se vend à Paris, chez J. Barbou ..., 1757.
Originally published as part of the author's Palaestra eloquentiae ligatae (Cologne, 1654). Reprinted 1753 by William Lauder, with forged additions to prove his theory that Milton had used Masen's poem as the basis for Paradise lost. Cf. "Observations sur la Sarcothée" (pt. 2, p. 11-74) for refutation of Lauder's claim.
