Note 39 — MADAME DE LONGUEVILLE. INTRODUCTION.
Frederick W. (Frederick William) Ricord translation
No one has been duped by the disavowal which he made, for political purposes, of the passages of these memoirs which concern Condé and his sister; for they are the very ones which most betray his hand. They shocked the public conscience, whose interpreter is Madame de Motteville, vol. v., pp. 114, 115, and 132.
