Balashëv
bowed
his
head
affirmatively
.
"
Peace
has
been
concluded
...
"
he
began
.
But
Napoleon
did
not
let
him
speak
.

He
evidently
wanted
to
do
all
the
talking
himself
,
and
continued
to
talk
with
the
sort
of
eloquence
and
unrestrained
irritability
to
which
spoiled
people
are
so
prone
.
"
Yes
,
I
know
you
have
made
peace
with
the
Turks
without
obtaining
Moldavia
and
Wallachia
;
I
would
have
given
your
sovereign
those
provinces
as
I
gave
him
Finland
.
Yes
,
"
he
went
on
,
"
I
promised
and
would
have
given
the
Emperor
Alexander
Moldavia
and
Wallachia
,
and
now
he
wo
n't
have
those
splendid
provinces
.
Yet
he
might
have
united
them
to
his
empire
and
in
a
single
reign
would
have
extended
Russia
from
the
Gulf
of
Bothnia
to
the
mouths
of
the
Danube
.
Catherine
the
Great
could
not
have
done
more
,
"
said
Napoleon
,
growing
more
and
more
excited
as
he
paced
up
and
down
the
room
,
repeating
to
Balashëv
almost
the
very
words
he
had
used
to
Alexander
himself
at
Tilsit
.
"
All
that
,
he
would
have
owed
to
my
friendship
.
Oh
,
what
a
splendid
reign
!
"
he
repeated
several
times
,
then
paused
,
drew
from
his
pocket
a
gold
snuffbox
,
lifted
it
to
his
nose
,
and
greedily
sniffed
at
it
.
"
What
a
splendid
reign
the
Emperor
Alexander
's
might
have
been
!
"
He
looked
compassionately
at
Balashëv
,
and
as
soon
as
the
latter
tried
to
make
some
rejoinder
hastily
interrupted
him
.

"
What
could
he
wish
or
look
for
that
he
would
not
have
obtained
through
my
friendship
?
"
demanded
Napoleon
,
shrugging
his
shoulders
in
perplexity
.
"
But
no
,
he
has
preferred
to
surround
himself
with
my
enemies
,
and
with
whom
?
With
Steins
,
Armfeldts
,
Bennigsens
,
and
Wintzingerodes
!
Stein
,
a
traitor
expelled
from
his
own
country
;
Armfeldt
,
a
rake
and
an
intriguer
;
Wintzingerode
,
a
fugitive
French
subject
;
Bennigsen
,
rather
more
of
a
soldier
than
the
others
,
but
all
the
same
an
incompetent
who
was
unable
to
do
anything
in
1807
and
who
should
awaken
terrible
memories
in
the
Emperor
Alexander
's
mind
...
Granted
that
were
they
competent
they
might
be
made
use
of
,
"
continued
Napoleon
--
hardly
able
to
keep
pace
in
words
with
the
rush
of
thoughts
that
incessantly
sprang
up
,
proving
how
right
and
strong
he
was
(
in
his
perception
the
two
were
one
and
the
same
)
--
"
but
they
are
not
even
that
!
They
are
neither
fit
for
war
nor
peace
!
Barclay
is
said
to
be
the
most
capable
of
them
all
,
but
I
can
not
say
so
,
judging
by
his
first
movements
.
And
what
are
they
doing
,
all
these
courtiers
?
Pfuel
proposes
,
Armfeldt
disputes
,
Bennigsen
considers
,
and
Barclay
,
called
on
to
act
,
does
not
know
what
to
decide
on
,
and
time
passes
bringing
no
result
.
Bagratión
alone
is
a
military
man
.
He
's
stupid
,
but
he
has
experience
,
a
quick
eye
,
and
resolution
...
And
what
role
is
your
young
monarch
playing
in
that
monstrous
crowd
?
They
compromise
him
and
throw
on
him
the
responsibility
for
all
that
happens
.
A
sovereign
should
not
be
with
the
army
unless
he
is
a
general
!
"
said
Napoleon
,
evidently
uttering
these
words
as
a
direct
challenge
to
the
Emperor
.
He
knew
how
Alexander
desired
to
be
a
military
commander
.
"
The
campaign
began
only
a
week
ago
,
and
you
have
n't
even
been
able
to
defend
Vílna
.
You
are
cut
in
two
and
have
been
driven
out
of
the
Polish
provinces
.
Your
army
is
grumbling
.
"
