Excerpt from Mémoires du Maréchal Marmont, Duc de Raguse de 1792 à 1841, Vol. 4: Imprimés sur le Manuscrit Original de l'Auteur, Avec le Portrait du Duc de Reichstadt
La maison de Bourbon, appelée, par le testament de Charles H et les droits qu'elle tenait de son sang, à recueillir cet héritage, finit par l'obtenir presque tout entier. On sait quels sacrifices la longue guerre lqu'il occasionna imposa à la France; mais l'espa gne, traversée, tour à tour et dans tous les sens, par les armées belligérantes, ravagée et appauvrie, devint le théâtre de dévastations dont les traces existent encore aujourd'hui.
