MAR. 1794 TEE FRENCH REVOLUTION. 345 secession from public affairs, had almost alienated the popular favour from him, or at least had not left him enough of it for overthrowing the reigning authority. In this conviction of his im^Dotence, he waited, and repeated to himself, They will not dare. It was but fair to presume that before so great a name and such great services his adversaries would hesitate. He then sank back into his indolence, and into the thoughtlessness of men conscious of their ...strength, who await danger without taking much pains to screen themselves from it. The committee continued to maintain silence, and sinister rumours continued to be circulated. Six days had elapsed since the death of Hebert. It was the lOth of Germinal (March 30). All at once the peaceable men, who had conceived indiscreet hopes from the fall of the furious party, said that they should soon be delivered from the two saints, Marat and Chalier, and that there had been found in their lives enough to change them, as well as Hebert, from great patriots into villains.
