Mrs.Craven, in her 'Life of Lady Georgiana Fullerton,' says: "It was put in at once, and its two hundred and seventy lines brought to the author twelve guineas on the day on which it appeared.

Lady Fullerton was surprised and delighted.
All her long years of success, different indeed in degree, never effaced the memory of the joy." {2} The refrain, in the original Gascon, is as follows: "Las carreros diouyon flouri, Tan belo nobio bay sourti; Diouyon flouri, diouyon graua, Tan belo nobio bay passa!" {3} In Gascon: "Las carreros diouyon gemi, Tan belo morto bay sourti! Diouyon gemi, diouyon ploura, Tan belo morto bay passa!" {4} in Gascon: "Jour per aoutres, toutjour! et per jou, malhurouzo, Toutjour ney, toutjour ney! Que fay negre len d'el! Oh! que moun amo es tristo!" {5} Sainte-Beuve: 'Causeries du Lundi,' iv.
