About this text

Alfred de Vigny († 1863): public-domain work. The text is that of Wikisource (Conard, Paris, 1927). Its transcription, by Wikisource volunteers (contribution history), is published under the CC BY-SA 4.0 licence; so are this reading page and the EPUB file. Erostrate has not changed a single word: only the layout and the division into pages are ours.
