Les accords de septieme regrettent!!! was the first of the birthday gift Debussy wrote for his second wife-to-be Emma Barda on 4 June 1905. It consists of only nine bards, inscribed as follows: 'But see how successfully the chords of the 9th, equipped with all their harmonies, send the regrettable 7th [in bars 1-4] about their business and borrow from the colour of the sky some godlike gleams in order to celebrate your birthday, dear petite mienne' ['Mais voici qu'heureusement des accords de 9me armes de tous leurs harmoniques te nous envole promener les regrettable 7emes et emprunte a la couleur de ciel des lueurs d'apotheose pour celebrer ta chere fete de chere petite mienne'] Which shous how much their initially idyllic relationship was founded on Emma's sympathetic understanding of Debussy's musical language, something that had proved impossible for his first wife Lilly.
