Eight new fables published in 1671 would eventually take their place in books 7–9 of the second collection. Books 7 and 8 appeared in 1678, while 9-11 appeared in 1679, the whole 87 fables being dedicated to the king’s mistress, Madame de Montespan. Between 1682 and 1685 a few fables were published dealing with people in antiquity, such as “The Matron of Ephesus” and “Philemon and Baucis”. Then book 12 appeared as a separate volume in 1694, containing 29 fables dedicated to the king’s 12-year-old grandchild, Louis, Duke of Burgundy.The first six books, collected in 1668, were in the main adapted from the classical fabulists Aesop, Babrius and Phaedrus. In these, La Fontaine adhered to the path of his predecessors with some closeness; but in the later collections he allowed himself far more liberty and in the later books there is a wider range of sources.
