Sse tse ouen tsien-tchou … Four words literature (with) commentary (or) explication … Recueil des phrases Chinoises composées de quartre caractères et dont les explications sont rangées dans l'ordre alphabétique francais. viii, 75 pp. Folio, bound in original publisher's yellow cloth. London: Harrison and Sons [for Henry Stanley], 1854. A collection of Chinese phrases with English and French equivalents from Lionne's original manuscript. First Edition, printed on blue paper throughout and printed lithographically from the manuscript; edited by and with a preface in English by Henry Stanley, the eminent diplomat and Orientalist (see DNB). The work is comprised of Chinese phrases collected by one of the French Jesuit Missionaries in China. The Peking dialect is used throughout. The orthography of pronunciation is French. The Chinese title of the original manuscript is believed to be in the hand of Klaproth, while the French title is attributed to M. Thonnelier.
