The year 1770 beheld, in the closing of the Théâtre Français, the extinction of a great power in the Rue des Fossés-Saint-Germain-des-Près for it was not, in fact, till the theatre was no more a theatre that the street changed its name, and became the Rue de L'Ancienne Comédie. The actors, meanwhile, repaired to the little theatre of the Tuilleries.
If Müller had not a sou, I, at all events, had now only one Napoleon; so the Café Procope carried the day. The Rue des Fossés-Saint-Germain-des-Près and the Rue de l'Ancienne Comédie are one and the same.
The porter, a German shoemaker living in a loft, had paid the money and kept the box. I walked up and down the Rue des Fosses-Saint-Germain-des-Pres and the Rue de l'Ecole de Medecine without hitting on any scheme which would release my trunk without the payment of the forty francs, which of course I could pay as soon as I should have sold the linen.
As the Rue des Fossés-Saint-Germain-des-Près, it dates back to somewhere about the reign of Philippe Auguste; and as the Rue de l'Ancienne Comèdie it takes its name and fame from the year 1689, when the old Théâtre Français was opened on the 18th of April by the company known as Moliêre's troupe Moliêre being then dead, and Lully having succeeded him at the Théâtre du Palais Royal.
