mousseau's

Updated: July 3, 2026

I hope I shall be pardoned for introducing some lines which were written upon our return, by an enthusiastic admirer of merit and music. In Mousseau's sweet arcadian dale, Fair Delphine pours the plaintive strain; She charms the list'ning nightingale, And seems th' enchantress of the plain. Blest be those lips, to music dear!
