To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Charles, however, received the marshal with a brusque- ness very unusual in him, and it was plain that his suspicions were far from allayed. " When is the Chevalier de Lorraine going to be recalled to the Court ? " he inquired sarcastically.
" I replied," writes Bellefonds to Louis XIV., " that I did not know ; that it was not easy to divine what your Majesty thought about such trifling matters, and that no one would presume to speak about it, unless your Majesty first broached the subject." Th...e situation was alarming, and Louis XIV. began to ask himself in all seriousness whether the Treaty of Dover was worth the parchment on which it was • Despatch of July 2, 1670, Mignet, Negotiations relatives d la succession iTEspagne sous Louis XIV.
1 1 4 RIVAL SULTANAS written, and whether it would not be advisable to renounce, for a time at least, his ambitious designs.
Fortunately for him, matters soon began to assume a more hopeful aspect. Charles, whatever suspicions he might still have entertained about Monsieur, exonerated Louis from any responsibility in the affair, and was too anxious to finger the money which had been promised him to break his engagements to the French King ; while Buckingham, whose " trans- ports " had probably been occasioned more by the desire to court popular favour than by indignation at the supposed murder of the princess for whom he had so long advertised his passion, was won back by the persuasions of his old friend the Comte de Gra- mont, and by the promise of a pension from France for his mistress, the notorious Countess of Shrewsbury.
