He never liked to lie awake in the dark, withoutsomebody to sit by him. Very early rising was apt to disagree with him. On which account, if he was obliged to rise betimes, for any civil orreligious functions, in order to guard as much as possible against theinconvenience resulting from it, he used to lodge in some apartment nearthe spot, belonging to any of his attendants. If at any time a fit ofdrowsiness seized him in passing along the streets, his litter was setdown while he snatched a few ...moments' sleep.
LXXIX. In person he was handsome and graceful, through every period ofhis life. But he was negligent in his dress; and so careless aboutdressing his hair, that he usually had it done in great haste, by severalbarbers at a time. His beard he sometimes clipped, and sometimes shaved;and either read or wrote during the operation. His countenance, eitherwhen discoursing or silent, was so calm and serene, that a (130) Gaul ofthe first rank declared amongst his friends, that he was so softened byit, as to be restrained from throwing him down a precipice, in hispassage over the Alps, when he had been admitted to approach him, underpretence of conferring with him.
