Note 103 — BOOK IV. FROM THE REVOCATION OF THE EDICT OF NANTES UNTIL THE EDICT OF TOLERATION. (1685-1787.)
Philip Edward Barnes translation
Edition Lefevre, p. 33. Some of the verses have a very striking allusion:
On peut des plus grands rois surprendre la justice. [Great kings can suppress justice.] Et le roi trop crédule a signé cet édit. [And a king too credulous has signed that edict.]
