An ''Ode à la grande armée'', mistaken at the time for the work of Écouchard Lebrun, attracted Napoleon's attention, and secured for the author a pension of 1200 francs. Lebrun's plays, once famous, are now forgotten. They are: ''Ulysse'' (1814), ''Marie Stuart'' (1820), which obtained a great success, and ''Le Cid d'Andalousie'' (1825).
