    A french idiomatical and critical vocabulary, alphabetically digested. Wherein is contained, An extensive Variety of Words, so disposed, that a much greater Number may be learned with more Ease, and in less Time, than is usually taken up, in the present Method of teaching the French Language. With Notes explaining the different Senses of Words, in their proper and figurative Expressions; and shewing how they are employ'd in either a grave or burlesque Stile, &c. Collected from the best French authors, grounded upon the French Academy, and render'd according to the idioms of both languages. By Isaac Cousteil.
