Let it be remembered that this good deed on your part is due to your heart and will.

May it protect you during your life, and make you blest in the life which is to come!" While at Nimes, the two poet-artisans met--Reboul the baker and Jasmin the barber.

Reboul, who attended the music-recitation, went up to Jasmin and cordially embraced him, amidst the enthusiastic cheers of three thousand people.

Jasmin afterwards visited Reboul at his bakery, where they had a pleasant interview with respect to the patois of Provence and Gascony.

At the same time it must be observed that Reboul did not write in patois, but in classical French.
Reboul had published a volume of poems which attracted the notice and praise of Lamartine and Alexandre Dumas.
