THE STORY OF THE DAUPHIN.
“He was born at Versailles in 1785. He was a most affectionate child, and was ardently attached to his mother. He used to sport about the gardens of the palace; the very place where we are now was his play-ground.
“He would sometimes rise early in the morning to gather flowers from the gardens to lay on his mother’s pillow.
“‘Ah!’ he would say, when weary of play, ‘I have not earned the first kiss from mother to-day.’
