Book Description: J’aurais pu rendre mes Contes plus agréables en y mêlant certaines choses un peu libres dont on a accoutumé de les égayer; mais le désir de plaire ne m’a jamais assez tenté pour violer une loi que je me suis imposée de ne rien écrire qui pût blesser ou la pudeur ou la bienséance. Voici un Madrigal qu’une jeune Demoiselle de beaucoup d’esprit a composé sur ce sujet, et qu’elle a écrit au-dessous du Conte de Peau d’Ane que je lui avais envoyé.
