- Letter of reproach from the Queen to Cardinal Mazarin on her repentance for having loved him (S. 1.), 1649, 6 pages.

(S. 1., 1648), 8 pages. MOREAU 3494. The text indicates that there are several editions of a pamphleteer's petition, of which the 1648 edition is the rarest. This work aroused opposing judgements: some, like Naudé, esteemed it, while others, like Mailly, strongly condemned it for its attacks on Cardinal Mazarin. He also points out that the printer was punished for its publication, proof of the polemical nature of the text. Finally, the request, attributed to the States of Île-de-France but speaking on behalf of other provinces, was even translated into Dutch, which shows how widespread it was.

He adds that the same could be said of Mazarin.
