After the death of his glorious father, he, when only eighteen years of age, made all good Frenchmen join this project of the Union, and enrolled us under this banner.

We have risked our lives, and sacrificed our fortunes, for the triumph of this sacred cause, according to our oaths, and yet, in spite of our sacrifices, nothing progresses--nothing is decided.

Take care, M.
de Mayneville, Paris will grow tired, and then what will you do ?" This speech was applauded by all the leaguers.
M.de Mayneville replied, "Gentlemen, if nothing is decided, it is because nothing is ripe.

Consider our situation; M.le Duc and his brother the cardinal are at Nancy--the one is organizing an army to keep in check the Huguenots of Flanders, whom M.d'Anjou wishes to oppose to us, the other is expediting courier after courier to the clergy of France and to the pope, to induce them to adopt the Union.

The Duc de Gruise knows, what you do not, that the old alliance between the Duc d'Anjou and the Bearnais is ready to be renewed, and he wishes, before coming to Paris, to be in a position to crush both heresy and usurpation." "They are everywhere where they are not wanted," said Bussy.
