M. le Monnier came twice a day, followed by a large number of guards; he was searched and was only permitted to speak aloud. 84 THE ROYAL FAMILY One day that the king had taken medicine, M. le Monnier asked to remain a few hours; as he was standing while several officials were seated and had their hats on their heads, His Majesty asked him to take a seat, which he declined to do out of respect; at this the officials murmured in audible tones. The king's illness lasted six days. A few days after..., the young prince, who slept in His Majesty's chamber and whom the officials had refused to transfer to that of the queen, was taken ill with a fever. The queen felt the greatest anxiety over his condition; the more so because, in spite of the most earnest pleadings, she was not allowed to spend the night by her son's bed. She took the tenderest care of him in the moments during which she was permitted to stay near him. The same illness spread to the queen, to Madame Royale and to Madame Elisabeth.
