" '^ Yet Desportes even supasses Ronsard in the matter of versification. He is the first we have met to observe constantly in his sonnets the rule demanding a change of gender with a change of rhyme, and, although he sometimes rhymes a singular with a plural (as in Sonnet XLVIII to Cleonice — contraire, miseres, and in Book II, Sonnet VI to Diane — ainsi, soucis), one feels that the time of Malherbe is near at hand.
One of the best known sonnets of Desportes is the one begin- ning * * Icare est
... cheut icy, le ieune audacieux, ' ' but as it is trans- lated almost word for word from Sannazaro's ^' Icaro cadde qui : queste onde it sa?ino, '' it need not be quoted here.

Ha ! je vous entens bien, ces propos gracieux, Ces regards desrobez, cet aimable sou-rire, Sans me les d^chiffrer je s^ay qu'ils veulent dire, C'est qu'a mes ducatons vous faites les doux yeux.
Quand je conte mes ans, Tithon n'est pas si vieux, Je ne suis desormais qu'une mort qui respire ; Toutesfois vostre coeur de mon amour soupire, Vous en faites la triste et vous plaignez des cieux.
