[468] It is needless to say that no authentic coins or medals bearing
Conde's head, with the designation of "Louis XIII.," have ever been found.
After the direct contradiction by Catharine de' Medici, no other testimony
is necessary. The Jesuits, however, impudently continued to speak of
Conde's treason as an undoubted truth, and even gave the legend of the
supposed coin as "Ludovicus XIII., Dei gratia, Francorum Rex primus
Christianus." See "Plaidoye de Maistre Antoine Arnauld, Advocat en
Parlement, pour l'Universite de Paris ... contre les Jesuites, des 12 et
13 Juillet, 1594." Memoires de la ligue, 6, 164. Arnauld stigmatizes the
calumny as "notoirement fausse."

[471] November 13th, "Hier au soyr, vers les sept heures," says Charles to
Gordes, Nov. 14, 1567, MS. Conde Arch., D'Aumale, i. 565. The king
naturally represents the movement as confused--"une bonne fuyte"--and
confidently states that he will follow, and, by a _second_ victory, put a
speedy end to the war.

Brissac's attack (which, according to him, was not made till after the
expiration of the truce) as a part of a projected general assault. Anjou's
main body failed to come up, and so Conde was saved. The blame was thrown
on Marshal Gonnor (Cosse) and on M. de Carnavalet, the king's tutor, whom
some suspected of unwillingness to allow so much noble blood to be shed.
Others accused the one of too much friendship with the Chatillons, the
other of a leaning to heresy ("de sentir le fagot") Agrippa d'Aubigne, i.
227. See also Cl. Haton, i. 503. These two noblemen were accused of
advocating other designs which were very obnoxious to the Roman Catholic
party. "La verite est," says Jehan de la Fosse, in his journal, p. 90,
under date of December, 1567, "que aulcuns grands seign
