To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We all know the story of Latude, incarcerated for thirty-five years by the whim of a royal mistress.
A homely saint in bonnet and shawl had ministered to the unhappy man whilst in the last and most horrible of his prisons. To this good woman, named Legros, had been accorded by the Acaddmie the Prix Montyon, a money prize, some years before.
A knot of benevolent men and women now wished to befriend her aider in the charitable work, a certain Sieur Girard; the titles of Monsieur and Madame, be it... remembered, were aristocratic privi- leges during the ancien regime. As has been noticed elsewhere in this volume, a middle-class matron remained Mademoiselle in the eyes of the noblesse.
The petition was successful, Girard being accorded a nominal post and small salary. For several years he had been a pensioner of Latude's benefactress.
Dr. Guillotin lost no time in joining the Club, or SocUti cU 1789, afterwards affiliated with that of the Jacobins. Among the four hundred and odd members figured Andr6 Ch^nier, Rabaut Saint- fitienne, Custine, Lavoisier, Le Chapelier, and many other Revolutionary leaders.
