Excerpt from Histoire de la Ligue Sous les Règnes de Henri III Et Henri IV: Ou Quinze Années de l'Histoire de France
Plus tard, les formes seront mieux gardées, et la justice sera violée juridiquement; Napoléon n'a jamais passé pour avoir la conscience timorée l'excès et, souverain d'hier par l'audace et la conquête, il n'aurait pas osé porter la main sur le dernier rejeton des bourbon-condé sans l'apparence légale d'une commission militaire dont il avait, à la vérité, pris soin de choisir les membres; la sentence s'exécutait dans les fossés de Vincennes et l'histoire raconte que, dans cette matinée lugubre, le premier Consul, en proie à une agitation extraordinaire, se promenait dans sa chambre en attendant la nouvelle de l'exécution. Les dix siècles de pouvoir royal incontesté portaient leur ombre sur le sien, né, la veille, de la Révolution.
