But Freitag overtook him and had him led back into a city building, where he was closely guarded together with his niece. Soldiers mounted guard around Madame Denis' bed. All the luxuriant arbitrariness of the Prussian agents is detailed in tlie letters of Voltaire on that occurrence. He mimics the monsir and the 2^oeshie of the satellites of the king^ describes their officious and swaggering bru- tality toward a woman, and depicts the nights of Madame Denis, who had sentinels for chamber- maid...s and bayonets for bed-curtains, etc.
At last came the order of liberation from the king, and Voltaire was enabled to go on his way v/ith Madam Denis. He escaped scot-free with the excep- tion of the fright, and Frederick had the ridicule of having uselessly committed an act of arbitrariness.
Voltaire doubtless made the philosophical rellec- tion that it is sometimes dangerous to become too familiar with kings who have two hundred thousand grenadiers at their service.
On his side the king consoled himself by saying of 94 VOLTAIRE IN BXILE.
