Louis XVII: His Life, His Suffering, His Death : the Captivity of the Royal Family in the TempleHarper & Bros., 1853 That ever yet this land was guilty of. Shakespeare: Richard III., Act iv., Sc. 3. Louis OF france, the seventeenth of the name, lived only ten years, two months, and twelve days. He bore the title of king only beneath the thatched roofs of La Vendee, and Within the tents of an exiled nobility. A few words, then, might seem to suffice for the narration of his life. -- Provided by publisher. |

Side 174 - The door of communication between the two was cut down, " so as to leave it breast-high, fastened with nails and screws, and grated from top to bottom with bars of iron. Half-way up was placed a shelf, on which the bars opened, forming a sort of wicket, closed by other moveable bars, and fastened with an enormous padlock. By this wicket his coarse food was passed in to little Capet, and it was on the ledge that he had to put whatever he wanted to send away.
Side 306 - At last he suffered so much that it was no longer possible for him to walk, and his keeper carried him about, sometimes on the platform, and sometimes in the little tower, where the royal family had lived at first. But the slight improvement to his health occasioned by the change of air scarcely compensated for the pain which his fatigue gave him.

Side 174 - It was the system of solitary confinement. ' He had a room to walk in, a bed to lie upon ; he had bread and water, and linen and clothes ; but he had neither fire nor candle. His room was warmed only by a stove-pipe, the stove being placed in the outer-room ; it was lighted only by the gleam of a lamp suspended opposite the grating, through the bars of which also it was that the stovepipe passed.
Side 60 - ... them which was likely to enlarge their misery. But the subtlest human foresight cannot tell what a day may bring forth. Unthought of, and unsuspected by the prisoners of the Temple, on the 1st of July, 1793, appears the following decree : " The Committee of Public Safety decrees that the son of Capet be separated from his mother, and committed to the charge of a tutor, to be chosen by the Council-General of the Commune.
