“In 1766, we find Louis XV, with the steam of the Parc aux Cerfs about him, rewarded by the loyal acclamations of a Parisian crowd, for descending from his carriage as a priest passed bearing the sacrament, and prostrating himself in the mud before the holy symbol.” — John Morley, Diderot And The Encyclopaedists
