Excerpt from Jerusalem Delivree: Nouvelle Traduction Avec la Vie du Tasse, Et des Notes Historiques d'Apres les Chroniques des Croisades Et les Historiens Arabes du Xie Siecle De vils habits ne peuvent effacer le noble eclat d'her minie, tout ce qui brille en elle d'altier, de grandiose; la majeste luit sur son front, meme au milieu des plus hum bles travaux; un rude baton a la main, elle conduit les troupeaux vers les paturages, les ramene au bercail, ex prime le suc de leurs mamelles. Dans les brulantes cha leurs de l'ete, lorsque les brebis reposent a l'ombre, sou vent Herminie grave, de mille manieres, sur l'ecorce des frenes et des lauriers, le nom de son amant; elle trace sur mille plantes le triste denoument de ses malheureuses amours En relisant ce qu'elle ecrit, d'abondantes larmes inondent ses joues: Arbres amis, s'ecrie-t-elle, conservez cette douloureuse histoire; si jamais un amant fidele s'a brite sous votre ombrage, une douce pitie agitera son coeur; touche de mes aventures fatales, il dira: a La for tune et l'amour ont paye d'une maniere tr0p injuste, trop cruelle, une grande fidelite! Peut-etre un jour, si le Ciel ecoute avec faveur les prieres des mortels, peut-etre l'auteur de mes maux viendra dans cette foret; l'oeil tourne vers la tombe ou sera ma fragile depouille, il accordera des larmes a mon martyre et des soupirs tardifs. Malheuo reuse pendant ma vie, puisse mon ame etre heureuse apres ma mort! Puissent mes cendres refroidies jouir d'un bien qu'il ne m'est pas permis de gouter aujourd'hui! N Ainsi elle parle a ces arbres inanimes, deux fontaines de larmes jaillissent de ses yeux. Alors Tancrede, guide par le hasard, s'eloignait d'herminie, tout en voulant s'en rapprocher.
