tear

Mis à jour: 1 juin 2025

Great men are bored the rest of the time. 2. It's enough to make you die of excitement. 3. The fact is that a heroic soul like mine will scarcely enlarge its horizon at Tarascon. 4. He will seek to tear himself from his dream. 5. In the long run all he does to forget reality will serve only to keep him in a state of anger. 6. Do not give me bad advice. 7.

Alphonse Daudet - Tartarin de Tarascon

No more the flo'wry scenes of pleasure rise, Nor charming prospects greet the mental eyes, No more with joy we view that lovely face Smiling, disportive, flush'd with ev'ry grace. The tear of forrow flows from ev'ry eye, Groans answer groans, and sighs to sighs reply; What sudden pangs shot thro' each aching heart, When, Death, thy messenger dispatch'd his dart?
