He secured immediate fame by the vigorous satire of his first work,
_Iambes_, and he is probably still best remembered for this, though
later volumes, especially _Il Pianto_, contain work of more perfect
finish.
Works: _Iambes_, 1831; _La Popularité_, 1831; _Lazare_, 1833; _Il
Pianto_, 1833 (these are now included in one volume, _Iambes et
poèmes_); Nouvelles Satires, 1837; _Chants civils et religieux_, 1841;
_Rimes héroïques_, 1843; _Sylves_, 1865.
