To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In order, however, to contradict the report that ad- herents of Napoleon only were in the habit of frequent- ing her parlors, the duchess also extended the hospitali- ties of her parlors to the strangers who brought letters of DRAWING-ROOM OP THE DUCHESS OP ST. LEU. 259 recommendation, and who desired to be introduced to her. Great numbers hastened to avail themselves of this permission.
The most brilliant and select circle was soon assem- bled around the duchess. There, were to be found the gr...eat men of the empire, who came out of attachment ; distinguished strangers, who came out of admiration ; and, finally, the aristocrats of the old era, who came out of curiosity, who came to see if the Duchess of St. Leu was really so intelligent, amiable, and graceful, as she was said to be.
The parlors of the duchess were therefore more talked of in Paris than they had been at St. Leu. The old duchesses and princesses of the Faubourg St. Ger- main, with all their ancestors, prejudices, and preten- sions, were enraged at hearing this everlasting praise of the charming queen, and endeavored to appease their wrath by renewed hostilities against its object.
