I have, in general, little to fear but casual infidelities, and the chance that they may not all be sufficiently transitory for my safety. The King likes variety, but he is also bound by habit; he fears eclats, and detests manoeuvring women. But, if he found another woman to whom he could talk of hunting and business as he does to you, it would be just the same to him in three days."
