For a sonnet by Théophile Gautier in Sonnets et Eaux-fortes, Lemerre, 1869, entitled "Promenade hors des murs" : "Quittant, par ce beau jour, bouquins, matras, cornues, / Le docteur Faust avec son famulus Wagner, / S'est assis sur un ban et jouit du bon air. / Il nous semble revoir des figures connues, / Wolgemuth et Cranach les gravèrent sur bois, / Et Leys les fait revivre une seconde fois.
