Lines written in "Letters of an Italian Nun and an English Gentleman"
by
[Lines written…English Gentleman, by J.J. Rousseau: [1] Founded on Facts”]
“Away, away,–your flattering arts
May now betray some simpler hearts;
And you will smile at their believing,
And they shall weep at your deceiving.”
[Footnote 1:
A second edition of this work, of which the title is, Letters, etc., translated from the French of Jean Jacques Rousseau, was published in London, in 1784. It is, probably, a literary forgery.]
