Instead, he steered all this hero-worship into one channel help for America. " In the midst of the whirl of excite- ment by which I was carried along, " he said, " I never lost sight of the revolution, the success of which still seemed to me to be extremely uncertain ; accustomed as I was to seeing great purposes accomplished with slender means, I used to say to myself that the cost of a single fete would have equipped the army of the United States, and in order to provide clothes for them I wo...uld gladly have stripped the palace at Versailles. " He did something more than wish ; he accomplished. He went to work practically. With the great Doctor Franklin and the famous American sea-captain, John Paul Jones, he planned an expedition in which he should lead the land forces and Paul Jones should command the war-ships ; the expedition, under the American flag, was to attack and cap- ture English ports and English cities. Then a still greater plan was considered ; this was the union of France and Spain for an assault on England in behalf of the colonies.
