His father had been intendant successively to the duc de Penthièvre, the comte de Toulouse and the unfortunate princesse de Lamballe, who was the boy's godmother. Lemercier was a prodigy; before he was sixteen his tragedy of ''Méléagre'' was produced at the Théâtre Français. ''Clarisse Harlowe'' (1792) provoked the criticism that the author was "''pas assez roué pour peindre les roueries''" (not enough scamp to depict scamp tricks.)
