Denis, Paris, 1645, on page 126. In M. Michel Félibien's Histoire de . . . Saint-Denyis, 1706, it is represented engraved on Plate IV of that work. In the inventory of the treasury of St. Denis made in 1739 by Monsieur Omont, who quotes the inventory of 1505, it figures under No. 80. It is here interesting to note that Doublet in 1625, Millet in 1645, Félibien in 1706, and Omont in 1739, allude to a sword that is not mentioned in the 1505 inventory, namely, that of Jeanne d'Arc, which sword, alas! we need hardly say is now non-existent.
