At last the court entered Macon, and once more Catharine de Medici and Jeanne d'Albret stood face to face. Between these two crowned women there was to be little more peace or truce until one of them was in her grave. Jeanne met with a very cold reception, both on the part of the young king and his mother. She was not prepared for this, and must have been greatly surprised and pained at the change of feel- ing manifested toward her, but the truth soon grew apparent. Catharine had been under evi...l influences since she left Paris. The cardinal of Lorraine had at last revealed to her the broad bearings of that monstrous compact at Peronne formed before the death of her husband. It is impossible to tell how much of the details of the plot the astute cardinal confided to the queen-mother, or how far the Mother of the Bourbons. 205 she really intended to accept the hideous com- pact. But nobody can doubt that his arguments and statements exercised a powerful influence over her future conduct.
