Circumstances having opened the way to his choice of a consort, he had used the opportunity in order to destroy the flimsy plea under which Great Britain had disturbed the nations and had stirred up the strife which had inundated Europe with blood.

I felt that my only course was to tell the whole story to M. de Sartine, but to do that I required Madame du Rumain's permission.
