FOOTNOTES:
[1] Gibbon's acquaintance with Voltaire was only slight. Vidi tantum, he writes.
[2] Poems addressed to her by these young theologians may be found in defunct magazines and annuals.
[3] This is not quite accurate. The letter which M. d'Haussonville dates 1762 conveys a salutation to Pastor Curchod, who died in 1760. It must have been written, therefore, not in 1762, but in 1758 or 1759.
[4] She sheltered Madame de Genlis in her flight from the Revolution.
[5] By the present author in 'Madame de Staël and her Lovers.'
[6] It has since been republished separately.
[7] Madame de Hardenberg, divorced and remarried.
[8] It was not made a University until later.
