this speech I thought I was pronouncing sentence of death on myself。〃

For several days; emissaries were sent to him; either deputies or

continuance of fanaticism。  〃For about two years; I was almost the

'30' Lafayette; 〃Mémoires;〃 IV。; 330。  〃At last came the 9th of

this tyranny?' was upset by it to such a degree as to denounce him。〃

State and Minister of Public Instruction。  He is accused in the

'32' Michelet; (1798…1874); 〃Histoire de la Révolution;〃 V。; preface

XXX (3rd ed。)。  〃When I was young and looking for a job; I was

referred to an esteemed Review; to a well…known philanthropist;

devoted to education; to the people; and to the welfare of humanity。

I found a very small man of a melancholic; mild and tame aspect。  We

were in front of the fire; on which he fixed his eyes without looking

at me。  He talked a long time; in a didactic; monotonous tone of

voice。  I felt ill at ease and sick at heart; and got away as soon as

I could。  It was this little man; I afterwards learned; who hunted

down the Girondists; and had them guillotined; and which he

accomplished at the age of twenty。〃 … This man's name was Julien de la

Dr?me。  I (Taine) saw him once when quite young。  He is well known;

first; through his correspondence; and next; by his mother's diary。

(〃Journal d'une bourgeoise pendant la Revolution;〃 ed。  Locroy。) … We

have a sketch of David (〃La Demagogie à Paris en 1793;〃 by Dauban; a

fac…simile at the beginning of the volume); representing Queen Marie

Antoinette led to execution。  Madame Julien was at a window along with

David looking at the funeral convoy; whilst he made the drawing。  …

Madame Julien writes in her 〃Journal;〃 September 3; 1792: 〃To attain

this end we must will the means。  No barbarous humanity! The people

are aroused; the people are avenging the crimes of the past three

years。〃 … Her son; a sort of raw; sentimental Puritan; fond of

bloodshed; was one of Robespierre's most active agents。  He remembered

what he had done; as is evident by Michelet's narrative; and cast his

eyes down; well knowing that his present philanthropy could not

annihilate past acts。
