The Comte de Guiche consented to marry a wife to whom he was but slightly attached, and who is quite content with him, praising his good qualities and all his actions. Mexica. Philippa. Molina. The Queen's Jester. In marrying Maria Theresa, Infanta of Spain, the King had made an advantageous match from a political point of view.
At the same time, the King got rid of that little she-dwarf, named Mexica, in whose insufferable talk and insufferable presence the Queen took delight. But the sly little wretch escaped during the journey, and managed to get back to the princess again, hidden in some box or basket.

"What!" cried his Majesty; "so you are back again? When and how did you come?" In a feeble voice Mexica answered, "Sire, please don't send me away from the Queen any more, and she will never complain again about Madame de Montespan."

Where it gleams forth in fourfold rays, where the fragrant yellow flowers bud, there live the Mexicans, the youths. From the land of the tzihuac bushes, from the land of the mezquite bushes, where was ancient Chicomoztoc, thence came all your rulers hither.
I laughed heartily, too, and such a treaty of peace seemed to contain queer compensation clauses: Madame de Montespan and Mexica were mutually bound over to support each other; the spectacle was vastly droll, I vow. Besides her little dwarf, the Queen had a fool named Tricominy.
