Épigraphe

(to be read preceding the cycle by the performer)
Rayonnement discret de la lampe baissée,
Douce plainte du lin par l'aiguille mordu,
Chant léger qu'étouffait, sur sa lèvre pressée,
Le baiser toujours pris et toujours défendu;
Vieux livre interrompu de lentes causeries,
Silence qu'occupaient de longs enchantements,
Parfum toujours en fleur des roses défleuries,
Calme des soirs passés près des tisons fumants:
Oh! je baise, en pleurant, l'aile dont tu m'effleures,
Souvenir éternel, regret inconsolé,
Amour qui fus ma vie et qui t'es envolé! ...
