As part of my research on Michel Foucault’s engagement with early Christian texts, I have been tracing his citational practices from 1974-1984 through his published works; gradually I will include citations from Foucault’s meticulous notes in his archives at the Bibliothèque nationale de France.

Would someone be willing to go to the Bibliothèque nationale de France
TLDR:
I need someone to visit the Bibliothèque nationale de France and ask to see a manuscript named "Rosine ou L'épouse abandonnée. RH 357" by François-Joseph Gossec. It's a three act opera, I'd like to know if one of those acts is called Gavotte and if at all possible I'd like to know what the exact notes and notation is. (The manuscript is listed on the bnf.fr website but it is not scanned into the system to view.)
Full Story:
There is a relatively small french composer named François-Joseph Gossec (died 1829). His most famous song is "Gavoette in D major" you might recognise it,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fOTxE1mJns
& https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqkRbC4EC-8
The oldest arrangements publicly available for this song are from the early 1900's
https://imslp.org/wiki/Gavotte_in_D_major%2C_RH_318_(Gossec%2C_Fran%C3%A7ois_Joseph)
The song became popular from Warner Brothers using it in Merrie Melodies/Looney Tunes in the mid 1900's
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucbLaqkK-Lw
Then in 1995 Shinichi Suzuki published a well known violin method book, Suzuki Violin School Volume 1 which contained the song.
The early 1900's arrangements only mentions Gossec's name and "Gavoette". Many people however list the song as being from Gossec's "Rosine ou L'épouse abandonnée. RH 357."

& http://www.radioswissclassic.ch/de/musikdatenbank/titel/29256600f6dbec816a850a6513bbea1fb6c6 (Notice how all Gossec's pieces are listed by movements where as Rosine is just an embedded mp3 file of Gavoette)
Rosine ou L'épouse abandonnée is said to be a three act opera though it is not publicly available anywhere nor have I found any performance of the opera. The only one claiming to own a manuscript is Bibliothèque nationale de France which has many of François-Joseph Gossec's original manuscripts.
https://data.bnf.fr/en/13894625/francois-joseph_gossec/
some of these you can see are available to view online but Rosine ou L'épouse abandonnée isn't.
Here's a CD of 90 Gossec operas. The description mentions Rosine ou L'épouse abandonnée but there is no sample of it.
