He had forgotten everything, even his literary tastes, even his great work, ~De figuris regularibus et irregularibus~, which it was his intention to have printed with the first money which he should procure (for he had raved over printing, ever since he had seen the "Didascalon" of Hugues de Saint Victor, printed with the celebrated characters of Vindelin de Spire).

(Car il radotait d’imprimerie, depuis qu’il avait vu le Didascalon de Hugues de Saint-Victor imprimé avec les célèbres caractères de Vindelin de Spire.)
