I said to my friends that the whole Court was witness of the harsh treatment I had met with for above a year in the King's palace, and I added, " The public is CARDINAL DB RETZ 89 engaged to defend my honour, but the public, being now about to be sacrificed I am obliged to defend it against oppression. Our circumstances are not so bad as you imagine, gentlemen, and before twelve o'clock to-morrow I shall be master of Paris. " My two friends thought I was mad, and began to counsel moderation, wh...ereas before they always incited me to action; but I did not give them hearing. I imme- diately sent for Miron, Accountant-General, one of the city colonels, a man of probity and courage, and having great interest with the people. I consulted with him, and he executed his commission with so much discretion and bravery that above four hundred considerable citizens were posted up and down in platoons with no more noise and stir than if so many Carthusian novices had been assembled for contemplation.
