"Sir! do you look at the matter in that way ?" cried Sully, indignantly.

"The Huguenots are as good as the Catholics.

They fight like the devil!" "The Emperor will never permit the princes to remain nor Leopold to withdraw," said the Envoy to Jeannin.
Jeannin replied that the King was always ready to listen to reason, but there was no use in holding language of authority to him.

It was money he would not accept.
"Fiat justitia pereat mundus," said the haggard Hohenzollern.
"Your world may perish," replied Jeannin, "but not ours.

It is much better put together." A formal letter was then written by the King to the Emperor, in which Henry expressed his desire to maintain peace and fraternal relations, but notified him that if, under any pretext whatever, he should trouble the princes in their possession, he would sustain them with all his power, being bound thereto by treaties and by reasons of state.
This letter was committed to the care of Hohenzollern, who forthwith departed, having received a present of 4000 crowns.
