Historians differ in theiraccounts of the treatment of the young King by this rough couple, butit seems pretty sure now that during their stay in the Temple they werenot altogether cruel to little Louis. He was allowed to play both inhis rooms and in the garden, had a billiard table, and a case ofmechanical birds for his amusement, and when he grieved for hissister's companionship, another little companion of his own age wasfound to play with him, and it is also known that during his twosicknes...ses, Simon and his wife cared for him with as much devotion asif he had been their own child. Whether this was because of the finesalary attached to the position, or from some native kindnessunderneath his coarse rough exterior, we do not know, but be this as itmay, Simon evidently gave only such measure of cruelty to his charge aswas insisted on by those who employed him, and it was doubtless, theywho forced Simon to do what he did to destroy the child's mental andbodily faculties. Louis was made to share their political opinions, toimitate their coarse manners and even to sing their revolutionarysongs, while in place of the mourning he had worn for his father, henow wore the coarsest garments and the red cap of the Jacobins, and wasoften made to drink and eat far more than was good for him, until atlast he was in a condition of body and mind such as his tormentorsdesired, when he could be made a tool to suit their own ends, becauseof his weakened and abnormal condition.
