Excerpt from Romances of the Reign of Henry II.; The Valois Romances; The D'artagnan Romances; The Regency Romances; The Marie Antoinette Romances; The Count of Monte Cristo, Etc Henri of Navarre put the crown upon their heroic labors, and gave them respite for a time with the famous Edict of Nantes, made more famous still by its Revocation a century later under the auspices of Madame de Maintenon, at the instiga tion of her Jesuit allies. Those portions of the story which introduce us to the councils of the Re formers are none the less interesting because the characters introduced are actual historical person ages, nor can it fail to add interest to the encounter between La Renaudie and Pardaillan to know that it really took place, and that the two men had previously been to each other almost nearer than brothers. It was but one of innumerable heart rending incidents, inseparable from all civil and religious conflicts, but in which those presided over by the Florentine mother of three Valois kings of France were prolific beyond belief.
