But Monsieur was resolved to have his fling, and recalled, in the most aggravating manner, the conduct the 307 Versailles and the Court under Louis XIV king had once adopted toward his queen, with respect to his mistresses, even allowing the latter to accompany him in his journeys, the queen at his side, and all in the same coach. This last remark drove the king beyond all patience, and he redoubled his reproaches, so that presently both were shout- ing to one another at the top of their voices.... The door of the apartment in which they wrangled was open, and only covered by a curtain, as was the custom at Marly, and the adjoining room was full of courtiers, waiting to see the king go by to dinner. On the other side was a little salon, devoted to very private purposes, and filled with valets, who could hear distinctly every word of what passed. The usher at the door, upon hearing this noise, entered, and told the king how many people were within hearing, and immediately re- tired. The conversation did not stop, however; it was sim- ply carried on in a lower tone.
