There was in the church three rows _de tribunes_ all full of well-dressed people.

_Les grands corps de l'Etat etaient ranges de chaque cote et dans le ch[oe]ur; l'Autel etait place au centre de l'eglise.

Les cardinaux et tout le clerge etaient alentour._ When my father arrived, the Archbishop of Paris received him at the door of the church, and we all walked in state.

My father _ouvrait la marche_ with the Queen.

_Prie-dieu_ and chairs were disposed for us _en demi-cercle_ before the altar, or rather before the baptismal font, which was placed in front of it, in the very middle of the Church.
