Excerpt from The Female Revolutionary Plutarch, Vol. 3 of 3: Containing Biographical, Historical and Revolutionary Sketches, Characters, and Anecdotes The consideration in which it Stood was superior to its strength, a certain proof of a respectable and firm government. Among the monarchs who have rendered the eighteenth century illustrious, none appears with a better title to esteem than Charles Emanuel, the grand-uncle of the unfortunate Princess of Lamballe. He was an active warrior, replete with valour, emulation, and prudence, a laborious, well-informed, and circumspect ruler: a discreet and discerning reformer, a popular and beneficent king: no one possessed in a higher degree the spirit of order, coherency, and justice. His court was regulated like his states, his application extended to every thing, no disorder was unknown to him, there was no unforeseen perplexity which he did not remedy. He was firm but not despotic, and never suffered himself to be moved by personal considerations. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
