Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of the Duc De Saint-Simon, Vol. 2 of 4: On the Times of Louis XIV. And the Regency Though the time has not yet come to speak of the career of the Duc d´Orléans, I can no longer postpone relating the terms on which I stood with him since the renewal of our intercourse, the manner of which I have already told in its proper place. His friendship and the confidence he placed in me were complete; I responded always with the most sincere attachment. I saw him nearly every afternoon at Versailles, alone in his entresol. He reproached me when chance made my visits less frequent, and he allowed me to speak to him with perfect freedom. No subject escaped us; he expressed himself openly on all; and he approved of my hiding nothing from him about himself. I never saw him except at Versailles or at Marly; that is to say at Court; and never in Paris. Besides the fact that I seldom went there, and then only to sleep one night, rarely two, to attend to my duties or my business, the life he led in Paris did not suit me. From the first I put myself on the footing of having no intercourse with any one at the Palais-Royal, nor with any of the companions of his pleasures or his mistresses.
