soul is buried with thee. Through whose death I have banished from

       my mind these studies, and all the delights of the mind. Shall I

       address thee? I shall never hear thy voice. Never shall I behold

       thee hereafter. O brother, dearer to me than life. Nought remains,

       but assuredly I shall ever love thee.”—Catullus, lxviii. 20; lxv.]

      But let us hear a boy of sixteen speak:

      [In Cotton’s translation the work referred to is “those Memoirs

       upon the famous edict of January,” of which mention has already been

       made in the present edition. The edition of 1580, however, and the

       Variorum edition of 1872–1900, indicate no particular work; but the

       edition of 1580 has it “this boy of eighteen years” (which was the

       age at which La Boetie wrote his “Servitude Volontaire”), speaks of

       “a boy of sixteen” as occurring only in the common editions, and it

       would seem tolerably clear that this more important work was, in

       fact, the production to which Montaigne refers, and that the proper

       reading of the text should be “sixteen years.” What “this boy

       spoke” is not given by Montaigne, for the reason stated in the next

       following paragraph.]

      “Because I have found that that work has been since brought out, and with a mischievous design, by those who aim at disturbing and changing the condition of our government, without troubling themselves to think whether they are likely to improve it: and because they have mixed up his work with some of their own performance, I have refrained from inserting it here. But that the memory of the author may not be injured, nor suffer with such as could not come near-hand to be acquainted with his principles, I here give them to understand, that it was written by him in his boyhood, and that by way of exercise only, as a common theme that has been hackneyed by a thousand writers. I make no question but that he himself believed what he wrote, being so conscientious that he would not so much as lie in jest: and I moreover know, that could it have been in his own choice, he had rather have been born at Venice, than at Sarlac; and with reason. But he had another maxim sovereignty imprinted in his soul, very religiously to obey and submit to the laws under which he was born. There never was a better citizen, more affectionate to his country; nor a greater enemy to all the commotions and innovations of his time: so that he would much rather have employed his talent to the extinguishing of those civil flames, than have added any fuel to them; he had a mind fashioned to the model of better ages. Now, in exchange of this serious piece, I will present you with another of a more gay and frolic air, from the same hand, and written at the same age.”

      Chapter 28

       Nine and Twenty Sonnets of Estienne De La Boitie

      Table of Contents

      TO MADAME DE GRAMMONT, COMTESSE DE GUISSEN.

      [They scarce contain anything but amorous complaints, expressed in a

       very rough style, discovering the follies and outrages of a restless

       passion, overgorged, as it were, with jealousies, fears and

       suspicions.—Coste.]

      [These. . . . contained in the edition of 1588 nine-and-twenty sonnets

       of La Boetie, accompanied by a dedicatory epistle to Madame de

       Grammont. The former, which are referred to at the end of Chap.

       XXVIL, do not really belong to the book, and are of very slight

       interest at this time; the epistle is transferred to the

       Correspondence. The sonnets, with the letter, were presumably sent

       some time after Letters V. et seq. Montaigne seems to have had

       several copies written out to forward to friends or acquaintances.]
