Lamartine, Alphonse De: Poésies (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from PoésiesVoilà les toits de chaume où sa main-attentive Versait sur la blessure ou le miel ou l'olive, Ouvrait près du chevet des vieillards expirants Ce livre où l'espérance est permise aux mourants, Recueillait leurs soupirs sur leur bouche oppressée, Faisait tourner vers Dieu leur dernière pensée, Et, tenant par la main les plus jeunes de nous.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
