“said she, pursuing her secret thoughts; "and the passion of the Béarnais for her is not strange at all."
"And she is so devoted to your majesty," said Réné. "At least I should think so."
Catharine smiled and shrugged her shoulders.
"When a woman loves, is she faithful to any one but her lover? You must have given her some philter, Réné."
"I swear I have not, madame."
"Well, well; we'll say no more about it. Show me this new opiate you spoke of, that is to make her lips fresher and rosier than ever."”
