Printed in MARSEILLE by Antoine Ricard, Printer of the KING and the City, Rue Paradis n° 31. Bends, marginal tears "Inhabitants of Provence,... It is for the second time that I have the honor to march at your head, it is for the second time that united to the brave Marshal-de-camp Count of LOVERDO, far from raising the standard of the civil war, we will deploy the standard of the honor and the fidelity... Yes, Provence wants to be governed from now on by the paternal scepter of the Sons of HENRI IV... And you, military men who composed the Observation Corps of the VAR, shall we still consider you as enemies? The only development of the whole armed population would be enough to annihilate you... The brave men of the 9th and 14th proved, in Corsica, how much they cared about honor. Provençals, I hope not to be forced, to ensure the triumph of the holiest of causes, to have recourse to your courage; no, French blood will not be shed, if you continue to show the same union...
