Note 125 — Chapter LXXXVI
Reading edition
"The word additional disenchanted the friends of liberty. They recognised in it the ill-disguised continuation of the chief institutions created in favour of absolute power. From that moment Napoleon to their view became an incurable despot, and I, for my part, regarded him in the light of a madman delivered, bound hand and foot, to the mercy of Europe."—Fouché, tom. ii., p. 276.
