' Anyone would have thought she was quiteforty-eight. Though her face as a rule looked so gentle, whenever anunhappy thought crossed her mind she showed it by a contortion thatfrightened one at first, and from time to time I saw her face twitchingwith anger, scorn, or ill-will. I forgot to say that she was very littleand thin. Such is, roughly given, a description of her body and mind, which I very soon came to know, taking pains from the first to observeher, so as to lose no time in acting on ...what I discovered. " As she was giving a first brief sketch of her life to her confessor, the marquise remembered that he had not yet said mass, and reminded himherself that it was time to do so, pointing out to him the chapel of theConciergerie. She begged him to say a mass for her and in honour ofOur Lady, so that she might gain the intercession of the Virgin at thethrone of God. The Virgin she had always taken for her patron saint, andin the midst of her crimes and disorderly life had never ceased in herpeculiar devotion.
