Under the generic title of 'Les Victimes d'Amour, he made his debut with the following three family-romances: 'Les Amants , Les Epoux , and Les Enfants . About the same period he published a book, 'La Vie Moderne en Angleterre. Malot has written quite a number of novels, of which the greatest is 'Conscience, crowned by the French Academy in 1878.
As the Princess stood gazing on their innocent slumbers she seemed for a moment like a third little girl scarcely bigger and browner than the others; and the smile with which she watched them was as clear as theirs. "Ah, si seulement je pouvais choisir leurs amants!" she sighed as she turned away. " Nice to-morrow," she repeated, as she and Undine walked on to their rooms with linked arms.
De bon cœur je pose les armes; Adieu le tumulte des camps, L'amitiè m'offre d'autres charmes, Au sein de mes joyeux parents; Le Dieu des Amants me rapelle, C'est pour m'enroler
In 1884, when he was in his twenty-second year, his cantata, l'Enfant prodigue, won for him the Prix de Rome by a majority of twenty-two out of twenty-eight votes it is said to have been the unanimous opinion of the jury that the score was "one of the most interesting that had been heard at the Institut for years." While at the Villa Médicis he composed, in 1887, his Printemps for chorus and orchestra, and, in the following year, his setting of Rossetti's "Blessed Damozel," of which the authorities at the Conservatory saw fit to disapprove because of certain liberties which Debussy even then was taking with established and revered traditions. He performed his military service upon his return from Rome; and there is a tradition told, as bearing upon his love of recondite sonorities, to the effect that while at Évreux he delighted in the harmonic clash caused by the simultaneous sounding of the trumpet call for the extinguishing of lights and the sustained vibrations of some neighboring convent bells. From this time forward his output was persistent and moderately copious. To the year 1888 belong, in addition to La Demoiselle Élue, the remarkably individual "Ariettes," six settings for voice and piano of poems by Verlaine. To 1889-1890 belong the Fantaisie for piano and orchestra and the striking "Cinq Poèmes de Baudelaire" (Le Balcon, Harmonie du Soir, Le Jet d'Eau, Recueillement, La Mort des Amants). In 1891 came some less significant piano pieces; but the following two years were richly productive, for they brought forth the exquisite Prélude
"Tous les amants Changent des maîtresses. Jamais le bon vin n'endort L'amour me réveille!" "The best is before us now, Monsieur L'as," said Du Mesne, joining Law, at length.
In a few verses, I will draw your entire character. Here they are, giving you the qualities you now have and those you have had: Dans vos amours on vous trouvait legère, En amitié toujours sûre et sincère; Pour vos amants, les humeurs de Vénus, Pour vos amis les solides vertus: Quand les premiers vous nommaient infidèle, Et qu'asservis encore
Another similar discourse, Le Débat de deux amants, has for setting a gala entertainment, taking place, like the founding of the “Order of the Rose,” under the auspices of Louis, Duke of Orleans, who ever extended a princely protection to Christine.
In vain did the theatrical bergeres, covered with jewels, raised upon red heels, with crooks ornamented with ribbons and garlands of flowers upon their robes, which were stuck out with farthingale's, die of love in tirades of two hundred verses; in vain did the 'amants parfaits' starve themselves in solitary caves, deploring their death in emphatic tones, and fastening to their hair ribbons of the favorite color of their mistress; in vain did the ladies of the court exhibit signs of perfect ecstasy, leaning over the edges of their boxes, and even attempt a few fainting-fits the silent pit gave no other sign of life than the perpetual shaking of black heads with long hair.
It contained, under its glass frame, three works of Baudelaire copied on real vellum, with wonderful missal letters and splendid coloring: to the right and left, the sonnets bearing the titles of La Mort des Amants and L'Ennemi; in the center, the prose poem entitled, Anywhere Out of the World n'importe ou, hors du monde.
