Reading edition
“Life of the Countess de la Motte, by herself,” vol. i. p. 151, et seq. The reader must take this glowing description of the wedding and what transpired subsequently at Fontette, subject to large allowances for Madame de la Motte’s habitual exaggeration, to make use of no stronger term.
