It is well known what pomp the Eastern princes were used to display in these expeditions.
One day, as the Count de Forbin, then Grand Ad- miral and General of the armies of the King of Siam, was assisting at a hunt of this kind, the king asked him what he thought of the magnificent display around him. " Sire," replied Forbin, " seeing your majesty THE ELEPHANT. 159 surrounded by all this cortege, I imagine that I see the king, my master, at the head of his troops, giving orders and disposing al...l things for a great battle.
" This reply," he adds, " gave him great pleasure, as I had foreseen it would; for I knew that he loved nothing in the world better than to be compared to Louis le Grand ; and, if the truth must be written, this comparison, which went no further than the ex- terior grandeur and magnificence of the two princes, was not absolutely without justice, there being few spectacles in the world more superb than the public processions of the King of Siam." The following are the modern methods of hunting.
