Book Description
Excerpt from Memoirs of the Duc De Saint-Simon on the Times of Louis XIV, and the Regency, Vol. 4 of 4 They were scarcely seated before M. Le Duc arrived, and, an instant after, the Due d'orleans. After a short silence I saw the chief-president say a few words in a low voice to the Due d'orle'ans, and then, in a loud tone, send the deputa tion of parliament to fetch the king's will and its codicil, which had both been deposited in the same place. Silence continued during this great but short expectation; each man looked at the rest, but without stirring. We, the peers, were on the lower seats; the doors were supposed to be shut, but the audience chamber was crowded with inquisitive persons of all qualities and stations, and the numerous suites of those who took part in the session. The deputation was not long in returning. The will and the codicil were placed in the hands of the chief-president, Reading the who presented them, without yielding his hold king's will and upon them, to the Due d'orleans, after which he passed them from hand to hand along the judges to Dreux, counsellor of parliament, saying that Dreux read well and in a loud voice which would be heard by all from his seat, which. Was above that of the presi dents and near the window of the robing-room. It can be imagined in what silence we listened, and how all eyes and ears were fastened on the reader. Amid his joy the Due du Maine betrayed a troubled soul; he felt himself at the moment of a great operation which he had to undergo. The Duc d'orleans showed nothing but tranquil attention.
