They were given to self-indulgence ; they were not broad in their limitations ; they were apt to contemn what did not accord with their own established views (for their views were established before their mustaches) ; they were wasteful of time and energies beyond belief; they were addicted to the pur- suit of pleasure. They exhibited the customary failings of their kind in a society of an aristocratic character.
51 Social Life But they possessed in full measure the corresponding virtues. They ...were brave, they were generous, they were high-spirited. Indulgence in pleasure did not destroy them. It was the young French noblesse who affected to eschew exertion even to the point of having themselves borne on litters on their boar-hunts, and who yet, with a hundred pounds of iron buckled on their frames, charged like furies at Fontenoy. So these same languid, philandering young gentlemen, when the crucial occasion came, suddenly appeared as the most dashing and indomitable soldiery of modern times.
