Louis XVI., as passive as usual, listened to Count Fersen, who was cool and resolute. 1 68 A FEIEKD OF THE QUEEN The Count reminded tlie royal couple of the dangers which they were about to incur; but the King and Queen with one accord answered him that " there could be no hesitation, and that they must go." For the last time the place of meeting, the hour, and the order of departure were discussed and settled; and as the success of the flight still remained doubtful, notwithstanding the precau...tions that had been taken, it was decided that Count Fersen should proceed to Brussels, and that should they be stopped, he was at once to act for them with the other sovereigns. Time was flying. It was necessary that the Queen should go to the promenade with her children, according to custom, so that she might be seen there. At about six o'clock Fersen took leave and withdrew. " Monsieur de Fersen," said the King earnestly, " whatsoever may happen to me, I will not forget what you are doing for me." The Queen's tears spoke no less plainly to Fersen's heart.
