To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Her beauty excited universal admiration when she first appeared at Versailles, and Louis the Fifteenth was so charmed with her that the Countess du Barry and her friends began to fear that the Princess de Lamballe might become Queen of France and put an end to the favorite's reign. She showed no desire to please the old King, however. The trials of her youth had saddened her, and she cared little for the gaieties of court life. Her misfortunes only made her the more interesting in the eyes of t...he Dauphiness. Everything conspired to draw them together — youth, beauty, pride of birth ; and Marie Antoinette's accession to the throne only seemed to strengthen the bond between them. Friendship with the Princess was no light affair. All the pas- sionate tenderness her husband had scorned, and which had since lain dormant beneath her cold exterior, she lavished upon the young Austrian.
[95] * MARIE ANTOINETTE'S YOUTH t Even their differences of disposition proved a source of attraction ; for the Queen^s high spirits enlivened the Princess's sadness, while her placidity served as a check on the other's levity.
