Louis XV., he received considerable See also:pensions. He died in See also:Paris on the 12th of See also:November 1780 from the results of a fall from his See also:horse. The satiric force of one or two of his pieces, as Mon Apologie (1778) and Le See also:Dix-huitieme Siecle (1775), would alone be sufficient to preserve his reputation, which has been further increased by See also:modern writers, who, like See also:Alfred de See also:Vigny in his Stello (chaps. 7-13), considered him a victim to the spite of his philosophic opponents. His best-known verses are the See also:Ode imitee de plusieurs psaumes, usually entitled Adieux d la See also:vie.
Among his other See also:works may be mentioned See also:Les Families de See also:Darius et d'Eridame, histoire persane (1770), Le Carnaval ties auteurs (1773), Odes nouvelles et patriotiques (1775). Gilbert's Euvres completes were first published in 1788, and they have since been edited by Mastrella (Paris, 1823), by See also:Charles See also:Nodier (1817 or 1825), and by M. de See also:Lescure (1882).
