Excerpt from The Empress Josephine, Vol. 2: Napoleon's EnchantressIn the Memoirs of Mme. De Rémusat we are given some insight into the feelings of Josephine at this anxious epoch. On the night before Morean's arrest Napoleon revealed to her his intention. He was unable to sleep and walked up and down the room all night. Neither could Josephine sleep after she had been told, and the marks of tears were plain upon her face next morning. Looking at her, Napoleon took her by the chin, lifted up her head, and said: Now, now Not every one has a good wife as I have. You are weeping, Josephine.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
