Synopsis
Excerpt from La Rue Saint-Honoré: Des Origines à la Révolution
La poussière de la rue que le vent soulève semble la cendre errante de l'humanité qui a battu son sol d'un pas fugitif et éphémère. Sur le champ tour à tour triomphal ou en deuil de sa carriere, que de victoires et de détresses, que de joies et de souffrances ont exhalé leur ivresse, leur douleur, leurs gémissements et leurs sanglots! Que de renommées ont été traînées dans la boue de son ruisseau! Naissances, funérailles, révolu tions, massacres, apothéoses, la chaussée de la rue saint-honoré a vu tout cela. Alternativement jonchée de fleurs, arrosée de sang, pavoisée, hérissée de barri cades, elle est toute palpitante, toute vibrante de l'âme du passé.
