She married Mademoiselle de Polignac, when scarcely thirteen years of age, to M.de Grammont, who, on account of this marriage, was made Duc de Guiche, and captain of the King's Guards, in reversion after the Duc de Villeroi.

The Duchesse de Civrac, Madame Victoire's dame d'honneur, had been promised the place for the Duc de Lorges, her son.

The number of discontented families at Court increased.
The title of favourite was too openly given to the Comtesse Jules by her friends.

The lot of the favourite of a queen is not, in France, a happy one; the favourites of kings are treated, out of gallantry, with much greater indulgence.
A short time after the birth of Madame the Queen became again enceinte; she had mentioned it only to the King, to her physician, and to a few persons honoured with her intimate confidence, when, having overexerted her strength in pulling lip one of the glasses of her carriage, she felt that she had hurt herself, and eight days afterwards she miscarried.

The King spent the whole morning at her bedside, consoling her, and manifesting the tenderest concern for her.
