Les Pseaumes de David mise en rime Françoise - Calvin, Jean 1509-1564; Marot, Clément 1496-1544; Bèze, Théodore de 1519-1605 (Paris Charenton Cellier, 1675)
Originally published in 1551, the translations of 150 Psalms of David by Clement Marot (1496-1544) as completed by Theodore de Bèze (1519-1605, Calvin's successor as spiritual leader of the Republic of Geneva) were used almost exclusively by the Calvinists (Genevan Psalter). The psalter was the main medium of popular fervour among the Reformed. The Edict of Nantes forbade Reformed worship in towns where the King of France resided and the only town allowed around Paris was Charenton.
Followed by The Form of Ecclesiastical Prayers, The Form of Administering Baptism, The Manner of Celebrating Holy Communion, The Catechism, and Daily Exercise of the Christian.
