He now writes libels and pamphlets, but they are now directed against the queen, against the former mistress of Trianon. And there is the fish-pond, along whose shores the sheep used to pasture, where the courtly company, transformed into shepherds and shepherdesses, used to lie on the grass, singing songs, arranging tableaux, and listening to the songs which the band played behind the thicket. All now is silent. No joyous tone now breaks the melancholy stillness which fills the shady pathways ...of the grove where Marie Antoi- nette, the mistress of Trianon, now walks with bended head and heart-broken spirit ; only the recollection of the past resounds as an echo in her inner ear, and revives the cheerful strains which long have been silent. At the fish-pond all is still, no flocks grazing on the shore, no picturesque groups, no songs. The spinning- wheel no longer whirls, the hand of the queen no longer turns the spindle ; she has learned to hold the sceptre and the pen, and to weave public policy, and not a net of linen.
