It was, indeed, difficult to follow and yet more difficult to satisfy him in the discharge of that office ; but M. Bignon and others — Cambac^res, Barb^-Marbois, Daru, Las Cases, Bertrand, and many more — inured themselves to his manner. In matters of importance he would look over and correct what had been written from his dictation, and would afterwards repeat word for word the sentences he had composed and revised. His style was clear. " Soyez clair, tout le reste viendra^", was a maxim of hi...s. In matters of business, he very justly ridiculed and defied that absurd canon of French criticism which forbids the recurrence of a word twice in the same sentence, or even page. ' Translation : " I will not repeat the word. Think, and recall the word that I dictated, and write it down ', for, I tell you, I will not repeat it". ' Translation : " he said he did not dictate ; his dictation could not be taken down in writing. He knew neither how to dictate, nor how to write". 'Translation : "be clear, and all the rest will follow".
