He replied, that the armistice was inevitable, and had been obtained through the English Ambassador. The narrative proceeds as follows.
14 The King said= Either we shall conclude an honourable peace, or we shall reinter on the campaign: the public spirit will be again aroused; perhaps France will join us, and we shall be stronger.'
