A private letter from Versailles, "Madam Pompadour gave a
grand ball after the news of Broglio's defeat. What
indecency to exult in the calamity of her country, because
it involved her enemy in disgrace! But what better can we
expect, while we are governed by a King, who is governed by
his mistress."
