It is now sixteen or seventeen years since I saw the Queen of France, then the Dauphiness, at Versailles; and surely never lighted on this orb, which she hardly seemed to touch, a more delightful vision. I saw her just above the horizon, decorating and cheering the elevated sphere she had just begun to move in, glittering like the morning star full of life and splendour and joy.

Oh, what a revolution! and what a heart must I have, to contemplate without emotion that elevation and that fall! Little did I dream, when she added titles of veneration to those of enthusiastic, distant, respectful love, that she should ever be obliged to carry the sharp antidote against disgrace concealed in that bosom; little did I dream that I should have lived to see such disasters fallen upon her, in a nation of gallant men, in a nation of men of honour, and of cavaliers! I thought ten thousand swords must have leaped from their scabbards, to avenge even a look that threatened her with insult.

But the age of chivalry is gone; that of sophisters, economists, and calculators has succeeded, and the glory of Europe is extinguished forever. Never, never more, shall we behold that generous loyalty to rank and sex, that proud submission, that dignified obedience, that subordination of the heart, which kept alive, even in servitude itself, the spirit of an exalted freedom! The unbought grace of life, the cheap defence of nations, the nurse of manly sentiment and heroic enterprise is gone. It is gone, that sensibility of principle, that chastity of honour, which felt a stain like a wound, which inspired courage whilst it mitigated ferocity, which ennobled whatever it touched, and under which vice itself lost half its evil, by losing all its grossness.

French School • Ball at the court of Henry III, Duc d'Alençon • 2nd half of the 16th century •

Bombastic ball!

The puffy sleeves of the Elizabethan era were not that way due to starch or stiff fabric. It was stuffing! And it wasn’t light and airy, either. Men and women would stuff their sleeves with rags, cotton, horsehair, and even bran. The trend went beyond sleeves, too. Men would also stuff their doublets so they could give themselves a larger belly – a symbol of wealth. This practice inspired the adjective “bombastic.” Then, bombastic referred to clothes stuffing. Today bombastic is a word used to describe someone who is pompous and exagerates his/her/their worth and accomplishments.

François Gérard (French,) • Louis XVIII (1755–1824), King of France • 1824 • Apsley House, London

Poor Louis:

Although gay dictionaries often include Louis XVIII, the king was certainly not "gay" nor even "homosexual" or "bisexual" in any conventional sense of these words. It is possible that he never had sex with anyone in his life.
