Even if not the de- viser of a plot, he had a large share in the guilt of bringing about the massacre, which was " the signal of a civil war, the most bloody of any in the memoi^ of nations. " CHAPTER XI. Tn£ Zri'JtISIXG OF THE HTJOVENOTS. (1362. ) ANEW period opens — that of the resistance. It begins in a chaos of bloodshed. It I'uns into the civil wars. On the part of the Huguenots it is marked by the organization of an army and by an arrest upon the advance of the Church. The sword glitters ...; piety declines. " Because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. " Catherine was at jNIonceaux, an undefended chateau near Paris, trying to save herself and her regal son from the Triumvirate. Conde was in Paris, with his eyes opened to the fact that he had been sadly befooled by those who wished to scatter his party to the winds and ruin all his hopes. The scales fell when Coligny was thrown out of the councils and when the horrors of Vassy caused him to sh udder. Other massacres were fast succeeding.
