It consists of six letters, the first of them entitled Abelard to Philintus, following more or less the line of the History of the Calamities, though with such startling
interpolations
as the following:
"I was infinitely perplexed what course to take; at last I applied myself to Heloise's singing master.

Nous remontions le Grand Canal en gondole, nous
regardions la file des palais, entre
lesquels
nous passions, refléter
la lumière et l'heure sur leurs flancs rosés et changer avec elles,
moins à la façon d'habitations privées et de monuments célèbres que
comme une chaîne de falaises de marbre au pied de laquelle on va se
promener le soir en barque pour voir se coucher le soleil.

Who ought to make me (what he can, or none),
That man divine whom wisdom calls her own;
Great without title, without fortune blessed;
Rich even when plundered,
honoured
while oppressed;
Loved without youth, and followed without power;
At home, though exiled; free, though in the Tower;
In short, that reasoning, high, immortal thing,
Just less than Jove, and much above a king,
Nay, half in heaven--except (what's mighty odd)
A fit of vapours clouds this demi-god.

View all, and mark the end
Of every proud extreme,
Where flattery turns a friend,
And
counterfeits
esteem;
Where worth is aped in show,
That doth her name purloin,
Like toys of golden glow
That's sold for copper coin.
