The text is on a piece of laid paper 95 x 140mm, pasted into the front of a 1790 copy of Atlas des Enfans {sic!]. I think it is a dedication as a class prize. The reference to "anno nono" would be to Year IX of the French revolutionary calendar which began in September of 1792.
I would be very grateful for an accurate translation as my Latin (which was never very strong to begin with) is now decidedly rusty.
Regards.
Fred
