A French emblem book of 1717, printed at Cologne, pairing Herman Hugo's Pia desideria with Otto van Veen's divine-love emblems and devotional commentary by Jeanne Guyon, for Catholic and Quietist readers. The 106 copperplates show two winged children — a haloed Amor Divinus and the Soul — acting out allegories in open landscapes with distant towns, radiant suns, and altars.
