Original Text:
TÉLÉMAQUE ET MENTOR.
Voyant son langoureux pupille,
Brûler pour Eucharis d'un feu toujours nouveau;
Mentor d'un coup de poing le flanqua raide à l'eau
Pour lui faire abandonner l'ile.

Unique quatrain de Mr. Duponchel.

Translation:
TELEMACHUS AND MENTOR.
Seeing his languorous ward,
Enflamed for Eucharis by a fire always new
Mentor threw him overboard
to make him abandon the love he knew.

(The only quatrain by Monsieur Duponchel)
