Commentary
En 1544, l'administration des pauvres de la ville de Paris fut confié à un Bureau des pauvres: l'administration publique relayait ainsi le clergé dans le rôle d'assistance aux plus démunis. Ce bureau était composé de six membres du Parlement, six avocats, un conseiller à la Chambre des comptes, deux chanoines, trois curés, quatre procureurs au Châtelet et seize notables. Parmi les bourgeois les plus riches était choisi un receveur des pauvres, élu pour deux années et chargé de lever les diverses taxes établies à cet usage.
