THREE:��MM. les magistrats, connaissant de r��putation les chemises de l����crivain, r��pondent avec une gravit�� toute municipale:��The executioner? You have guessed it, Monseigneur, and that fearful name explains the state of mind in which you see me.��
THREE:Taking leave of her friends, who implored her not to leave them, she started for Brussels, accompanied by her niece Henriette and Pamela, who went part of the way with her. At Antwerp she met her son-in-law, M. de Lawoestine, who had been to visit her when she was living in Holstein. With her two sons-in-law she was always on the most friendly and affectionate terms.
THREE:The Duchesse d��Aiguillon had obtained leave to have a thimble, needles, and scissors, with which she worked. Jos��phine read and worked; T��r��zia told stories and sang.
THREE:Others there were who showed the basest ingratitude. The Marquise de ���� had been saved by Mme. Tallien, and hidden for three weeks in her boudoir. Not even her maid knew of her presence there. T��r��zia herself not only brought her food and waited upon her, but obtained her pardon and got part of her fortune restored to her. For some time she appeared very grateful, and as long as Tallien was powerful she came constantly to see T��r��zia, often asking for fresh favours.
THREE:��I know neither the Montagne nor the Gironde. I know the people, and I love and serve them. Give me a serge dress and I will go to the hospitals and nurse the sick patriots.��
THREE:��What does that prove? Do not all these brutes say tu nowadays?��
THREE:Mme. Le Brun returned home, but dared not stay there, so she accepted the invitation of her brother��s father-in-law, M. de Rivi��re, in whose house she thought she would be safe, as he was a foreign minister. She stayed there a fortnight, treated as if she were a daughter of the house, but she had resolved to get out of France before it was too late.
