Excerpt from Les Charmettes Et Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Plus d'une fois, on m'a demandé d'écrire une étude sur ces Charmettes fameuses. Je me hâlais peu de le faire. Il est doux de se com plaire, seul, dans un souvenir une émotion lointaine cachée au fond de l'ètre. L'âme y puise une chaleur féconde, une joie mystérieuse qui n'a pas besoin de confidents, qui les redoute mème et les éloigne.
