JAMMES Francis [Tournay, 1868 - Hasparren, 1938], French poet. Autograph letter signed. Hasparren, July 14, 1936; 2 pages in-4°. "This meditation on the death of a child is so beautiful that I could not find a term to praise it enough if it were only about the heart and a nobility of style that equals that of the purest Bossuet. But by what strange aberration do you leave this child in the state of a corpse and make her lie by bargaining her eternal life and her beatitude. I myself lost my godchild. [...] They have engraved on her grave, and the poetic material is no more beautiful than your prose: "To my godson Sylvette Guillon-Verne".
