After her marriage to him she had flung to the winds her mar- riage vows and plunged madly into excesses, regarding her husband with coldness and indifference, while his heart was torn and lacerated over her unfaithfulness. She later underwent a complete change of feeling; it was impossible for any one to be long brought into close contact with Napoleon without loving him without adoring that imperial spirit which found a home in his breast. Josephine was not different, and her weak woman's hea...rt had long since capitulated. She loved the emperor with a passion which amounted to veneration, but his heart never returned to her keeping after the cruel shafts had pierced it during the early period of his married life. His love had lost its illusion. There were state reasons for a divorce. France was assured of the perpetuation of freedom under the Napoleonic rule, and it was of the utmost importance that a son should suc- ceed Napoleon. He was married to Marie Louise, daughter of the reigning house of Austria.
