'Presented By The People Of Paris To Madame La Dauphine, 30 May 1770'

An engraving inscribed with a poem 'presented by the people of Paris to Madame la Dauphine, 30 May 1770':


That gold, diamonds crown your power
That flowers of spring crown your beauty
But let your goodness and virtue be crowned
by the hearts of all France
