8 LA BELLE FRANCE to the entrance. I felt in no haste to mount the steps. In fact, I was not sure that the square itself was not enough to see and to reflect on in one day. It is true, these walls which have beheld so much of royal and imperial splendor are now silent, and these old steps so often trodden by the feet of men and women who can never be unknown to his- tory are now abandoned to the tread of tourists; but must one for that reason pass them with a hasty glance nor pause to comprehen...d the story of their beauty and decay? The travelers who rush across the Court of Adieux and ascend these steps, eager to be the first admitted, in order to return that afternoon to Paris, do not appreciate Fontainebleau. But now and then a tourist comes to linger a few days at one of the hotels opposite the castle. He studies the historic palace leisurely and thoughtfully, as one sits down to con- template a painting which others pass with but a hasty glance. He chooses for his visits to it hours before or after the arrival and depart- ure of the crowd of sightseers from Paris.
