��you will see,�� said rivarol, ��that these haughty romans whom m. louis david has brought into fashion with his cold, hard painting, will bring us [285] through a period of cato and brutus. it is the law of contrast. after the solemn airs of louis xiv., the orgies of louis xv.; after the suppers of sardanapalus-pompadour, the milk and water breakfasts of titus��louis xvi. the french nation had too much esprit, they are now going to saturate themselves with stupidity.����at the barrier came the parting with those she was leaving in the midst of perils. when they would meet again, if they ever did at all, it was impossible to guess.��louis xv., at this time about forty-five, extremely handsome, immersed in a life of pleasure, magnificence, and vice, was then under the domination of the duchesse de chateauroux, ma?tresse en titre, the youngest of the five daughters of the marquis de nesle, four of whom had been for a longer or shorter period the mistresses of louis xv. that such a father as the king should have had such a son as the dauphin is astonishing indeed. the author of some fascinating memoirs of the day writes of him, ��if i have not yet spoken of m. le dauphin, do not suppose that it is from negligence or distraction, it is because the thought of his death always envelopes my mind like a funeral pall. his premature end is ever present with me, and is a subject of regret and affliction which i cannot approach without terrible emotion. he was so grievously mourned for, he has been so universally and justly praised, that there would not be much left me to tell you if i were not to speak of his perfect beauty, which was the least of his perfections, and which perhaps for that very reason, the writers of his time never mention.... his face and figure were perfectly formed; and he had, especially in the movement of his lips and the gentle, melancholy pride of his great black eyes, an expression which i have never seen unless perhaps in some old picture of the spanish school ... he might have been an archangel of murillo.... he carried with him the happiness of france and the peace of the world, but one felt that it would have [166] been perfect happiness, and that one would never experience it. the subjects, perhaps the family of the king his father had provoked such terrible chastisements, that we may sorrowfully say that france and the french of the eighteenth century were not worthy to be ruled by the dauphin louis.�� [56]��������wait and see if there is an answer,�� said keeling.������
