Set of 8 autograph letters signed "Paule" or "Pauline" and 3 cards, addressed to Nathalie Barney. From 1900 to 1905; mainly in-8° format. "This morning, Dear, the joy that your letter caused me and the deep emotion of your beautiful sonnet"; "You forget! but my books, which are the soul of my soul, have kept your reflection and your imprint"; "I told you by the brief voice of the telegraph, Nathalie, the time has not come to see us again. And I write this to you with great sadness"; "Forgive me but the raw truth is hard to see. Why did you not love me when I loved you"; "How could I not think of you Nathalie, I who loved you"; "And I see you again, in your dress quivering with opals, fairy-like and prestigious... And the spell of yesterday found on me its eternal power..."; "But you understood well, didn't you? that it would be as impossible for me to live one day without you, as to deprive me of the lights of the sun or of the flowers"; "I adore my tablets. Do you remember the tablets of the two little flute players?"
