J'aimais éperdument la Comtesse de ***; j'avais vingt ans, et j'étais ingénu; elle me trompa; je me fâchai; elle me quitta. J'étais ingénu, je la regrettai; j'avais vingt ans, elle me pardonna; et comme j'avais vingt ans, que j'étais ingénu, toujours trompé, mais plus quitté, je me croyais l'amant le mieux aimé, partant le plus heureux des hommes. Elle était amie de madame de T..., qui semblait avoir quelques projets sur ma personne, mais sans que sa dignité fût compromise. Comme on le verra, madame de T... avait des principes de décence auxquels elle était scrupuleusement attachée. Un jour que j'allais attendre la Comtesse dans sa loge, je m'entends appeler de la loge voisine. N'était-ce pas encore la décente madame de T... ? Quoi ! déjà ! me dit-on. Quel désoeuvrement ! Venez donc près de moi. J'étais loin de m'attendre à tout ce que cette rencontre allait avoir de romanesque et d'extraordinaire. On va vite avec l'imagination des femmes, et dans ce moment, celle de madame de T... fut singulièrement inspirée. Il faut, me dit-elle, que je vous sauve le ridicule d'une pareille solitude; puisque vous voilà, il faut... L'idée est excellente. Il semble qu'une main divine vous ait conduit ici. Auriez-vous par hasard des projets pour ce soir ? Ils seraient vains, je vous en avertis; point de questions, point de résistance... appelez mes gens.

Vivant Denon (1747-1825), a dilettante and diplomat under the Ancien Regime, survived the Revolution and accompanied Napoleon's army to Egypt. The publication in 1802 of this lively, illustrated three-volume account (translated a year later) is regarded as the chief stimulus for the so-called 'Egyptian Revival' style of architecture and interior design.
