| Synopsis | Il est certains esprits dont les sombres pensées Sont d'un nuage épais toujours embarrassées ; Le jour de la raison ne le saurait percer. (Boileau, Art poétique) Certain souls, by melancholy bound, In dark thoughts are ever tightly wound; The light of reason could not pierce that thick cloud. |
