Allowing for the omissions and restrictions of her book, her knowledge of French history was good. The evening before the day on which she was to recite on Francis the First, she made her way, for the first time, into the library. * This room had been shut up since the death of her uncle and smelt musty. There were so many books and they were so covered with cobwebs, that she was about to give up the search when she discovered a book whose title made her utter a cry of joy.

The next day she began on her subject at full speed. The priest was frightened and her aunt, who did not know what was the matter, gave her a blow and tumed her out of the room.
