Femelle de singe!!! Oh! pardonne-moi, cher; oui, c'est infâme! mais malgré tout, je l'aime, je l'aime; et pour dire comme Othello, que j'imiterais si elle me trompait: «Her jesses are my dearest heart strings.» Meurent la gloire et l'art!... Elle m'est tout... je l'aime....

Apart from M. de La Rochefoucauld, La Fontaine was the only one of the many great men of her time with whom Mme. de La Fayette was on terms of friendship.

This unfortunate princess had passed her exiled youth in the convent of Chaillot; and Mme. de La Fayette, going thither on frequent visits to a kinswoman, was drawn into intimacy with the young girl, who must even then have given evidence of those charms which later made her brief reign at Court as brilliant as it was unhappy.
She became the mistress of Francis I., and afterwards of his son, Henry II. Her influence over Henry was boundless; even the beauty and wit of Catherine de Medici could not weaken the King's attachment to her. He loaded her with favors, and in 1548 donated to her for life the Duchy of Valentinois. Upon the death of Henry, Madame de Valentinois was banished from the Court by Catherine.
