Dietrich the Amal rose into power and great glory, and became 'son-in- arms' to the Emperor.

Catherine, in her fear lest Henry of Navarre should be some day King of France, had arranged the assassination of her son-in- law; and Charles, getting wind of this, warned him that the air of the Louvre was not good for him that night, and kept him in his company.

Taking his future son-in- law aside, he said: "Ascher, is it true that you gamble?" "Father," Ascher answered with equal firmness, "Gudule's eyes will save me!"
