^{page 432 note 1} Paschal's life and relations with the poets of the Pléiade are treated at considerable length in M. Pierre de Nolhac's Ronsard et l'humanisme, Paris, 1921, pp. 262–339.

^{page 434 note 6} With him, among others, are Baïf, Dorat, Jodelle, and Du Bellay. In 1560, Paschal's name was replaced by that of Olivier de Magny, and the list varied as new friends were formed and old ones fell from favor. M. Laumonier has published the text of 1553 in the Revue d'histoire littéraire de la France, 1905, p. 249.

^{page 434 note 7} This is attested by a letter from Denys Lambin to Ronsard. Cf. Nolhac, op. cit., p. 297.

^{page 434 note 8} In his Hymne de Charles, cardinal de Lorraine, Ronsard praises Paschal along with Dorat, Du Bellay, and Michel de L'Hospital.

^{page 434 note 12} In justice to Paschal it should be pointed out that his history of the reign of Henri II, although falling far short of expectations, was gradually being compiled and actually progressed farther than was admitted by his contemporaries. There is not a trace, however, of his chapters on literature, so one is justified in concluding that they were never even begun. Cf. Longnon, Pierre de Ronsard, p. 273; and P. de Nolhac, op. cit., pp. 330–339.

^{page 437 note 21} Even in 1558 Du Bellay had boasted that “… Camille joue avec les vers latins comme si elle était née dans le Latium. Elle parle si élégamment la langue grecque que vous jureriez que c'est une jeune Athénienne. Camille sait encore l'hébreu, elle l'écrit comme elle écrit le latin. Camille compose des vers français, auxquels Ronsard lui-même pourrait porter envie; elle touche la lyre avec une grace qui désespérerait Apollon; et ce qui vous étonnera bien davantage, c'est que Camille est à peine dans son dixième printemps.” (De Camilla Jani Morelli F., translated by Coupé, Les Soirées Littéraires, Paris, 1795.)
