Each page consists of a woodcut ill. by Bernard Salomon followed by a rhymed quatrain in French by Paradin, with the relevant book and chapter of the Bible given at the top. The 125 cuts comprise 68 from Exodus and 57 from subsequent books of the Old Testament. De Tournes later used these cuts, supplemented with others by Salomon, for various eds. in various languages of the Testaments and the whole Bible; see Mortimer.
