1768: Zélis au bain, Paris, 1763, 1766, in-8. This poem, in four books, was written with enough natural but in a too free tone; the author, who worked ceaselessly his works, reworked it, changed the outcome and added two songs (la Nouvelle Zélis au bain, Geneva, in-8).

1771: Traduction en prose de Catullus, Tibullus and Gallus, Paris, 1771, 1794, 2 vol. in-8 et in-12.
1773: La Rosière de Salenci, opéra lyrique, Paris, in-8. The music by Grétry made the success of this work.

1775: Journal militaire ou relation détaillée des campagnes de M. le maréchal de Maillebois en Italie: précédé et suivi d'un précis historique de cette guerre.
A selection of his Œuvres was published (Liège, 1791, 2 vol. in-12), preceded by a historical and literary note. Masson de Pezay also contributed articles to the Encyclopédie by Diderot and D'Alembert.
