✨M. de Lorraine’s Jealousy✨
The Duc d’Orléans uttered a cry of delight on perceiving the Chevalier de Lorraine. “This is fortunate, indeed,” he said; “by what happy chance do I see you? Had you indeed disappeared, as every one assured me?”
“Yes, monseigneur.”
“A caprice?”
„Le vicomte de Bragelonne” - A. Dumas

someone’s dog-eared this library copy of saint-simon’s memoirs on the page where it says ‘... the Chevalier de Lorraine [...] ruled Monsieur in everything. He had been compellingly handsome; Monsieur’s taste was not for women; he made no attempt to disguise it; he had taken the Chevalier de Lorraine for his master and so he remained for the rest of his life.”
