Excerpt from Une Illumin???e au Xixe Si???cle (la Baronne de Krudener), 1766-1824 ???vapor???e, enrag???e de plaisirs mondains comme toutes ces poup???es de salon, musqu???es, poudr???es, pomponn???es et endiabl???es, sur lesquelles elle se mo dela tout d'ebord, elle eut moins de sensiblerie et plus de v???ritable sentiment qu'elles. Sans y son ger, elle eut m???me parfois du coeur; sans y songer aussi, il est vrai qu'elle en manque. Plus d'une fois son pau_vre mari ne le sut que trop. Mais son ???me inqui???te, avant de se fixer pour un temps dans l'in constance, cherchait ??? se rattacher ??? quelque chose de plus positif que les veines d???monstrations de la courtoisie convenue d'un monde aussi ???go???ste au fond que sceptique. La dissipation, l'entra???nement, les pr???jug???s, l'atmosph???re o??? elle vivait, ne lui per mettaient gu???re d'ouvrir les yeux sur le c???t??? grave et s???rieux de la vie sa jeunesse ne le lui permettait pas davantage. Avec sa nature enthousiaste et toute de prime-saut, elle sejeta tout d'ebord dans les dissi pelions et y apporta la m???me ardeur qui la devait jeter plus tard dans l'illuminisme, la d???votion, le mysti cisme et les pr???dications. Il semblait ???crit que son ???me en ???bullition d???passerait toujours la note. Il y avait du fond en elle, et beaucoup m???me il n'y avait pas, h???las! Une ???gale dose d'???quilibre. De l??? des incons???quences, des aventures, dont le bon go???t au moins, ??? d???faut de l'esprit de devoir, aurait d??? la pr??? server. Mais la faute en est moins ??? elle peut-???tre, qu'??? son ???ducation, ou plut???t??? son manque d'???ducation premi???re, d'???ducation s???rieuse. Jet???e de tr???s bonne heure dans le monde le plus corrompu qui fut jamais, celui de la monarchie agonisante de Louis XVI.
