1830. Augt 5.
J.B. to France

Noe then I look forward. Louis the
19th I see seated on the throne. He is a man; and
a man in that situation. This is all I know
of him. Well then, knowing this, I will tell you

which you please, say the throne, his to all
the Royal Gems, and all the Royal
No sooner does a man's sitting part place itself on a
throne, than up rise into his breast all these virtues —
The Charter has made him invulnerable. Other blood
he sheds as much as he has a mind for: his own
is safe. The hymns by which they are ascribed, have
at all times and in all places been chanted in
