To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Helas ! Berenice 5 VII.
Compare the simple pathos of her departure with the pomp with which Gorneille's Berenice returns to her Jewish dominions. On taking leave of the emperor, she says : Graces an juste ciel, ma gloire en surete N'a plus a redouter aucune indignite.
Rome a sauve ma gloire en me donnant sa voix; , ,, . «. . . • • . . • • Nous pourrions vivre heureux, mais avec moins de gloire Allons, Seigneur : tna gloire en croitra de moitie Si je puis remporter chez moi son amitie.
Tite et B...erenice 5 V 1677^1770.
As a final example, let us quote the words of Pulcherie, the heroine w^hose coming, awakened such pleasurable anti- cipations in Mme. De Sevigne. In her first scene, she demon- strates clearly that she understands the ideals of Gorneille. With admirable moderation and self control, she states her position to her lover : Je vous airae, Leon, et n'en fais point mystere : Ma passion pour vous, genereuse et solide, A la vertu pour ame et la raison pour guide, La gloire pour objet, L'amour entre deux coeurs ne veut que ies unir; L'hymenee a de plus leur gloire a soutenir ; Pulcherie 1 I 1-80.
