Nor was the home to which he conveyed the newly-made countess more consistent with her age and habits than its master. The gloomy castle of 1523 FRANCIS THE FIRST 99 Anet (pompously designated the palace of the kings of Navarre, because the domain had originally formed a portion of the territories appertaining to those sovereigns), admirably as it was situated in a fertile valley, watered by the rival rivers of the Eure and the Vesgre, and backed by the magnificent forest of Dreux, was in itsel...f dark, melancholy, and isolated.
It consisted of a heavy square mass of masonry, pierced on each of its sides by two rows of lancet windows, deeply sunk in the stonework, and was flanked at either corner by strong and lofty towers, the whole of the edifice being surrounded by a battlemented wall and encircled by a moat, and the only mode of access being through the medium of a drawbridge, which communicated with a single entrance gate, opening upon the court within. The interior of Anet was consistent with its outward appearance ; dark oaken panellings, grim time- touched portraits of departed worthies, long and chill galleries where the lightest footfall awoke mysterious echoes, — these were the unattractive features of the bridal-house of the mere girl whom the grand seneschal had won from her smiling birth- place in Dauphiny.
