Florent Schmitt
The fable was set for solo voice as the sixth piece in "Six Fables de La Fontaine" (1861) by Pauline Thys. In 1954 Florent Schmitt included it in his "Fables sans morales" for mixed choir or four soloists (Op. 130). It was also among the four pieces in Isabelle Aboulker's "Femmes en fables" (1999).
