Quotes

  • Et quand divinement ta voix m’enchaine
    Je vois s’évanouir tout ma peine
    Et tout ton être chante et vive en moi.
    • Because you speak to me in accent sweet,
      I find the roses waking 'round my feet,
      And I am led through tears and joy to thee.
    • Parce Que ["Because"] st. 2 (1902) as translated by Edward Teschemacher. French quoted in Dolf Wyllarde, Exile: An Outpost of Empire (London: T. Fisher Unwin, 1916) p. 247
