Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Le Palais de Saint-Cloud (Souvenirs Historiques): Son Histoire Et Sa Description
C'est la que, vers le milieu du vie soecle, un pretre vint se consacrer tout entier au culte de Dieu. La vie de ce saint homme avait ete un melange d'elevation et d'humilite. Son enfance s'etait ecoulee dans les palais, sa jeunesse dans ia solitude, son age mur dans la priere; et ce qui lui restait de jours etait devoue a 'la charite et a la propagation du christianisme. Il pouvait trou bler son pays, il aima mieux le servir; il pouvait aspirer a la royaute, il travailla a meriter une autre couronne celle que Dieu reserve a ses elus.
