Note 477 — Part II—The Worldlings (continued 3)
Henri Van Laun translation
"For her the weeping heavens become serene, For her the ground is clad in cheerful green, For her the nightingales are taught to sing, And nature for her has delayed the Spring."
These charming verses on the Duchess York remind one of those of La Fontaine in "Le Songe," addressed to the Princess of Conti.
