My Departure — Letter from Henriette — Marsellies — History of Nina — Nice — Turin — Lugano — Madame De ***

As soon as I had regained¹ my usual strength, I went to take leave of the Marquis d’Argens and his brother. I dined with them, pretending not to observe the presence of the Jesuit, and I then spent three delightful² hours in conversation with the learned and amiable³ Marquis d’Argens. He told me a number of interesting anecdotes⁴ about the private life of Frederick II. No doubt the reader would like to have them, but I lack the energy to set them down. Perhaps some other day when the mists about Dux have dispersed⁵, and some rays of the sun shine in upon me, I shall commit all these anecdotes to paper, but now I have not the courage to do so.

Frederick had his good and his bad qualities, like all great men, but when every deduction⁶ on the score of his failings has been made, he still remains⁷ the noblest figure in the eighteenth century.

The King of Sweden, who has been assassinated⁸, loved to excite hatred⁹ that he might have the glory of defying it to do its worst. He was a despot at heart, and he came to a despot’s end. He might have foreseen a violent death, for throughout his life he was always provoking men to the point of despair. There can be no comparison between him and Frederick.

The Marquis d’Argens made me a present of all his works, and on my asking him if I could congratulate myself on possessing the whole number, he said yes, with the exception of a fragment of autobiography
