Synopsis
Excerpt from La Régence Portefeuille d'un Roué
Philippe d'orléans avait été, dès sa première jeunesse, un prince mal élevé on lui avait, il est vrai, enseigné à la fois la musique et la peinture, la poésie et les armes, même un peu les belles lettres, toutes choses d'ailleurs pour lesquelles il avait une grande aptitude et qu'il apprit comme' en se jouant. Mais superfi ciellement. Il eut, comme prince du sang, des gouverneurs de pre mier choix, dont deux maréchaux de France, mais surtout des sms - gouwrnmrs au soin desquels il étai t plus particulière... abandonné Il les perdi t successivement avant d'avoir terminé eu tiérement son éducation et ses études, et, pour finir, il tomba aux mains de ce misérable Dubois, homme d'un esprit non moins déli£ que pervers, qui poussa beaucoup plus son élève au plaisir qu'à l'étude.
