The princess, that noble creature, one of the most remarkable creations of our monstrous Paris, where all things are possible, good as well as evil, became--whatever vulgarity the course of time may have given to the expression--the angel of his dreams.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
