Excerpt from An Enemy to the King: From the Recently Discovered Memoirs of the Sieur De La Tournoire Hitherto I have written with the sword, after the fashion of greater men, and requiring no secre tary. I now take up the quill to set forth, correctly, certain incidents which, having been noised about, stand in danger of being inaccurately reported by some imitator of Brantome and De l'estoile.
