examples: Je verserai l’oubli sur les Dieux, mes aînés,
Et je prosternerai leurs fronts découronnés,
Parmi les blocs épars de l’Orient torride,
Plus bas que l’herbe vile et la poussière aride ;
Et pour l’éternité, sous l’Eau vive des cieux,
Le bon grain germera dans le fumier des Dieux !
Et, vivement impressionné par la noblesse réelle du spectacle, je ne pus m’empêcher de mêler ma voix aux acclamations enthousiastes des croyants prosternés.
