She proposed that the dukes should come up secretly with their army, that they should procure, by force or by persuasion, a goodly number of boats, and go down the river into Bordeaux, shouting: Vive Condé Down with Mazarin! In this way Madame la Princesse's entry would assume the proportions Of a veritable triumph, and Madame de Tourville, by a détour, would accomplish her famous project of taking forcible possession of Bor deaux, and thus inspiring the queen with a wholesome terror of an army whose opening move resulted so brilliantly.
