observer might have perceived that she was slightly marked with the
small-pox. Her skin was delicately fair, and her beautiful flaxen hair
clustered in heavy ringlets, less showery than generally worn
according to the fashion of the time, over her forehead and neck. Her
eyes were blue, swimming in softened light, and her countenance
was overspread by a regard so tender yet so full of modesty, that
she gained at the same moment the love and esteem of all who
gazed upon her; and yet, when the occasional lighting up of her
features as the King addressed her, died away, they became pale
and sad. Her smile was followed by a pensive expression, which
accorded but ill with the festivity around her.
‘Ah, times are changing!’ said the abbe, as he gazed at her; ‘and
that fair lady’s reign is nearly over. I question whether La Montespan,
with all her witcheries, will love him half so well though.’
‘Who is it?’ asked Jean.
The abbe appeared slightly astonished at the ignorance of his new
acquaintance, as he replied—
‘Who could it be but Louise de la Vallière? Ah! hers was a curious
destiny. Picked out by Louis to cover his attention to his sister-in-law
Henriette, she has supplanted her. But it does not seem likely that
the liaison will last much longer. Montespan has his heart.’
As he spoke, Mademoiselle de la Vallière rose from her seat and
crossed over to speak to Madame de Maintenon, who was sitting on
the parapet of the basin that received the water from the fountain.
She limped as she walked along, and Jean saw that she was lame.
‘She seldom dances,’ continued the garrulous abbe, ‘on account of
her defect; and so she does not care always to be present at the
balls. I can conceive the reason of her not being at the play.’
‘How was that?’ inquired the Gascon.
‘Because the King’s sentiments appear to be somewhat changed
since our Molière was commanded to write the Princesse d’Elide. He
was then madly in love with La Vallière, although at the time she
resisted all his entreaties. What else could these lines mean?’
And Jean flinched as the abbe again commenced a piece of
declamation, quoting from the piece in question in a monotonous
tone of dulness suited to the subject—
The homage which is offer’d to a countenance refined
Is an honest indication of the beauty of the mind;
And scarcely possible it is, if love be not innate,
That a young prince should come to be or generous or great:
And this above all other regal qualities I love,
This sign alone the tenderness of royal hearts can prove!
To one like you, a bright and good career we may presage,
When once the soul is capable of loving, at your age.
Yes, this immortal passion, the most noble one of all,
An hundred goodly virtues training after it can call;
The most illustrious actions are engender’d by its fires,
And all the greatest heroes have experienced its desires.’13
Gaudin made no reply, but his bosom heaved rapidly, betraying his
internal emotion. Once he turned towards Louise Gauthier as if to
speak: the words died on his tongue.
‘This is idle talk,’ said the Marchioness, as she drew Sainte-Croix
to her side. ‘If you would not be taken for our accomplice, girl, you
will keep silent as to what you have heard. Sainte-Croix, you are
stupefied by this person’s raving. Will you not come with me,
Gaudin?’
She seized his hand, and rapidly changing the tone of anger she
had adopted to one of softness and affection, gazed tenderly at her
lover, as her fair countenance resumed its tranquillity, and her eyes,
beaming with gentleness and light, looked into Sainte-Croix’s, with
an expression that thrilled his very soul.
‘Marie!’ cried Gaudin faintly, ‘take me where you list. In life or after
it,—on earth or in hell, I am yours—yours only.’
A flush of triumph passed over her face as she led Sainte-Croix
from the grotto, leaving Louise Gauthier clinging to one of the
statues for support—so pale, that she might have been taken for
another figure of the group, but for the violent emotion that agitated
her slight and trembling frame.
