Synopsis

Excerpt from Letters From the Count De Las Cases: Consisting of a Second Letter to Prince Lucien Bonaparte, in Which Is Contained an Account of the Circumstances Attending His Arrest and Removal From St. Helena; And a Letter to Sir Hudson Lowe, Comprising an Historical Detail of the Whole of That Officer

John, in captivity, received the honours of a King, which were refused him when seated on the throne: his misfortunes, not his t1t1e, were respected; and the French Prisoners, conquered by this elevation of mind, more than by their late discomfiture, burst into tears Of admiration; which were only checked by the reflection, that such genuine and unaltered heroism in an enemy, must certainly, in the issue, prove but the more dangerous to their native country.-hume's england, chapa xvr.
