The full text: "By the command of Apollo, the learned virgins gather on the sacred mountain in order to erect the tomb of Lenclos. One of the favorites of this god holds council among them as to which material to use and in which form they must build it. Finally, they make a resolution: they have a great yew tree cut down that for two hundred years had drawn its nourishment from a cemetery in which it made its residence. They make a lute from it to serve as his monument, and in this gloomy wood they put his ashes to rest. But as they recognize that their science is not great enough nor lofty enough to pronounce his funeral oration, they skillfully put this tombeau into the hands of the great Gaultier, the best friend of the deceased and the only one capable of rendering this final office. Having this trust, this divine man draws from it, through the power of his art, words that express so strongly the grief of this loss, that all his listeners take on the nature of this passion." Translation by David J. Buch, from La Rhetorique des Dieux.
