. . " Amid the loud cries and shouts of echoing voices, the Emperor opened the door and showed himself.
" Well, what is this ? " he said, in a severe tone. " What is all this noise about ? " At these words the little troop looked up, and all remained motionless from surprise and fear. The Emperor gazed at this gather- ing of small ones with delight. Each child was more charming than the other, and he could not help smiling at the grotesque manner PALACE OF SAINT CLOUD 137 in which they were dre...ssed up. One had made a three-cornered hat out of paper, and had fastened on it a large macaroon as a cockade ; another had hung his coat over his shoulder to represent the dolman of a hussar. Little Adolphe, a good-looking boy, had painted himself a moustache with China ink, and with the fur cape of a little girl had made a belt into which he stuck a paper knife of mother-of-pearl as a dagger. His sleeves were turned back to the elbow, and he held a pistol in each hand. Under this disguise little Adolphe looked so full of mischief that Napoleon sat down in order to watch him more leisurely.
