I shall merely relate some facts which fill up the interval between 1793 and 1795, and which I have collected from papers which he himself delivered to me. Among these papers is a little production, entitled 'Le Souper de Beaucaire', the copies of which he bought up at considerable expense, and destroyed upon his attaining the Consulate.

"That is my business, not yours," said Philip. "I had your orders to join you at half-past eleven. Perhaps you have other engagements?" "Perhaps." "A petit souper with the Countess Born? She is not present here; at least among all the masks I can't trace her out. I should know her among a thousand by that graceful walk and her peculiar way of carrying her little head eh, Prince?"

Similarly, after the 31st of May and the 2nd of June, his "Souper de Beaucaire" shows that if he condemns the departmental insurrection it is mainly because he deems it futile: on the side of the insurgents, a defeated army, no position tenable, no cavalry, raw artillerymen, Marseilles reduced to its own troops, full of hostile sans-culottes and so besieged, taken and pillaged.

CHAUCER, The Squire's Tale. Jem was pondering Mary's conduct; but the pause made him aware he ought to utter some civil listening noise; so he said "Very true."

'Le Souper de Beaucaire' is given at full length in the French edition of these Memoirs, tome i. pp. 319-347; and by Iung, tome ii. p. 354, with the following remarks: "The first edition of 'Le Souper de Beaucaire' was issued at the cost of the Public Treasury, in August 1798. This pamphlet did not make any sensation at the time it appeared.

Helas! la malheureux, abjurant sa tendresse, Exercait a souper sa fureur vengeresse. "Pardon the prolixity of my quotation for the sake of its value."
