Excerpt from The Last Days of Marie Antoinette This is not a new book about Marie Antoinette: it is a recapitulation, an almost daily record, of the life led by the prisoner in Les Feuillants, the Temple, and the Conciergerie;a collection of notes whose chief merit is their absolute authenticity. Nothing has been included but the narratives of eyewitnesses: of those who, on one ground or another, were admitted to the Queens presence during the period between the 10th August, 1792, and the 16th October, 1793. These were neither gentlemen of the Court nor official historiographers. The Dangeau and the Saint-Simon of these dark days were a gaoler's wife, a menial of the pantry, an upholsterer, a servant-girl, a gendarme, a sweeper - witnesses, that is to say, whose style does not aim at any great elegance. But I think their rugged sincerity will strike us as being more impressive than the poetical and pompous redundancies of the official writers of the Restoration. "Marie Antoinette's life in the Temple belongs to History," says M. Wallon; "the reader does not wish such a subject to be quickly passed over: he is greedy of details and likes to dwell on them, because, in the face of so striking an example of the instability of human affairs, his emotions are as great as the misfortunes that call them forth." The amazing contrast between the Queen's first years, between the dreamlike life at Schoenbrunn and Versailles, and her overwhelming sorrows, is enough to move the most callous heart.

Not illustrated. 1907 edition. Excerpt: ... Meanwhile I stood by and, as I watched him, meditated on the thoughtlessness of his age, which seemed to me to contrast so strikingly with the anxieties of his royal parents, and the demeanour they were obliged to preserve in this cruel situation of theirs. Madame Elizabeth, who noticed the sad absorption with which I followed the movements of the young Prince, and read my thoughts, condescended to tell me so on the first opportunity, and was kind enough to thank me. The tender affection of this good princess for her imprisoned relatives, whose misfortunes she had determined to share, made her very observant and acute, so that she learnt to judge of the commissioners' humanity by their looks and conduct, and she was not too proud to encourage it in them by expressing her gratitude. At dinner, which was served in the King's room, I again saw the whole royal family, but under a new aspect. Their food was still excellent, and carefully prepared. The royal prisoners were most abstemious, the princesses and M. le Dauphin drinking nothing but water, of which the King mixed a great deal with his wine. At dessert he indulged in a single glass of sweet wine. His skill in carving meat was remarkable; and he showed this skill in various kinds of manual work, with which he had been in the habit of amusing himself in happier times. The royal family spoke little, for reserve was forced upon them by the presence of the commissioners. As for me, the part I had undertaken to play was torture to me, for I reflected bitterly that I too was contributing to the restraint to which this august family was subjected even at their meals. 1 It was during one of these walks that Leqnenx, an architect of some repute, took the very interesting sketch that faces p....

Excerpt from Last Days of Marie Antoinette: An Historical Sketch I propose writing an account of those last seventy-six days of a life once so bright, now brought to the lowest depth of moral and physical suffering. The Conciergerie is one of the most curious and interesting monuments of ancient Paris. A fortress in the days of Eude, Count of Paris, who here defied the Normans, it was enlarged by Robert the Pious, and from his time to that of Charles the Wise was the principal dwelling-place of the French kings. Later occupied by the Parliament, it became transformed into a State prison, although a portion of the building was still reserved for the use of the Parliament, the State Exchequer, and other judiciary bodies.
