==== Late years ==== [[File:Lagrange's tomb at the Pantheon.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Lagrange's tomb in the crypt of the [[Panthéon, Paris|Panthéon]]]] In 1810, Lagrange started a thorough revision of the ''Mécanique analytique'', but he was able to complete only about two-thirds of it before his death in Paris in 1813, in 128 [[rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré]]. Napoleon honoured him with the Grand Croix of the Ordre Impérial de la Réunion just two days before he died. He was buried that same year in the [[Panthéon]] in Paris. The inscription on his tomb reads in translation:<blockquote>JOSEPH LOUIS LAGRANGE. Senator. Count of the Empire. Grand Officer of the Legion of Honour. Grand Cross of the Imperial [[Order of the Reunion]]. Member of the Institute and the Bureau of Longitude. Born in Turin on 25 January 1736. Died in Paris on 10 April 1813.</blockquote>
