Excerpt from A Princess of Intrigue, Vol. 1: Anne Genevieve De Bourbon, Duchesse De Longueville, and Her Times The punishment of those who have loved women too well, is to love them always.1 This was the punishment of Henri IV.

But his heart was still young, and he was as amorous as he had been at twenty. F rom the first, he took the keenest pleasure in Mlle. De Montmorency's society; soon he was hopelessly in love, although, for some time, he appears to have deluded himself into the belief that his interest in the damsel was of a paternal nature only.

She made him understand, says Madame de Motteville, that he had done wrong in separating himself from his family, who would be useful to his interests. He perceived that the Prince de Conti was Obtaining great advantages at Court, and he recognised that Madame de Longueville, who had guided the latter to this result, was worth listening to, and could be of use to him in many ways.
