I well remember Paris emerging from her trials. It is difficult to-day to realise the magnitude of the disaster which laid low the beautiful capital of France. When I arrived within its shattered walls, the monster conflagration¹ that would have destroyed the whole city, had it not been for the timely arrival of the Versailles troops, was all but subdued³. The firemen, however, were still kept busily engaged, for clouds of smoke and tongues of fire would at intervals⁴ burst forth⁵ from the smouldering ruins. Tottering⁶ walls on the one hand, huge fa?ades of masonry⁷ on the other, marked the places where but yesterday glorious specimens⁹ of architecture, ancient and modern, had stood. There was the shell of what had been the Tuileries, that palace built in the 16th century, which had seen so much of the history of France. Mobs had pillaged¹⁰ and sacked it; within its state-rooms one crowned head had been forced to wear the cap of liberty, a humiliation¹¹ which did not save it from the knife of the guillotine. Some fifty years later a bourgeois¹² king had to fly for his life from the palace; and last, it was an unfortunate Empress who had to make good her escape, and seek refuge on the shores of England.

There would be no more pillaging¹³ and sacking now; the venerable specimen
