The "Characters" of Jean de La Bruyère

Note 126 — II. OF PERSONAL MERIT.

Henri Van Laun translation

By this bishop some say was meant M. de Harlay (1625-1695), archbishop of Paris; others think the archbishop of Rheims, Le Tellier (1642-1710), the brother of Louvois, was designated. See also page 141, note 282.
