Excerpt from Histoire Universelle du Théatre, Vol. 4

L'exemple de ce dévergondage, mal imité des modes françaises, était donné par le Roi et par son frèrele Duc d'york. Le Roi reconnut une foule de bâtards, dont la plupart lui furent gratuitement attribués. Quatre d'entre eux firent souche de Ducs. La pauvre Reine, elle, n'avait pas d'enfants, et, dans sa bonhomie, elle réconcilia plus d'une fois son mari avec ses maîtresses pour garder la paix du ménage.

Le théâtre de cette époque doit naturellement repro duire quelque chose des moeurs que nous venons de rappeler, moeurs dont le journal de Pepys (diary and correspondence of Samuel Pepys), ainsi que les Mé moires du chevalier de Grammont, nous tracent un tableau si peu édifiant.
