The Memoirs of Louis XIV.
His Court and The Regency

CHAPTER IV
8/21

Our loss was very slight.

Charleroy taken, our troops went into winter-quarters, and I returned to Court, like the rest.

The roads and the posting service were in great disorder.

Amongst other adventures I met with, I was driven by a deaf and dumb postillion, who stuck me fast in the mud when near Quesnoy.

At Pont Saint-Maxence all the horses were retained by M.de Luxembourg.
