La Dame De Monsoreau (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Excerpt from La Dame De Monsoreau

As a matter of course his gentlemen and those of the King lived on the worst possible terms, and there were, at least twice or thrice a month, hostile encounters between them, which seldom passed without some one of the combatants being killed or grievously wounded.

As for Catherine, she was at the height of her wishes her best-beloved son was on that throne on which she had been so anxious to see him seated, for her own sake as well as for his; and she reigned through him, while apparently car ing nothing for the things of this world and anxious only about her salvation.
