M. DC. XXV. Avec privilege du Roy, pour six ans"1625This famous treatise on riding, supported by philosophical remarks, is written in the form of interviews for the attention of the young Dauphin (future Louis XIII). To introduce him to the art of "reducing horses to obedience in a short time", Antoine de Pluvinel softened the teaching he himself received in Italy. It is illustrated by Crispin de Passe, whom Pluvinel met in Holland during one of his diplomatic missions...

He apparently obtained some practical object, or rather some essential ointment. What is it about? The title indicates this, as the Latin legend of the subscription will indicate more precisely. But these Latin, or Latin-Greek, terms, unknown to Cicero or Caesar, are not immediately assimilable, even if the radical sto-48 from which they are formed gives an idea of stability, firmness or plumbness (in this case, of the feet). They actually mean so-called pedicle herbs49 which we also call filopodia, that is to say herbs which relieve the feet of these riders, wearing narrow and uncomfortable boots, and enduring long hours or long days on horseback, without being able to let them rest in the open air. Here is how the author of the Latin legend describes and interprets the image: Pedes, humi ut, stetere equo, insidentium, cito levati, ut ipsa scala sublevat (“Having dismounted, the riders, as soon as they remount, are quickly relieved, the stirrup itself delivering them from their suffering”)."..
