+
+Project Gutenberg Etexts are usually created from multiple editions,
+all of which are in the Public Domain in the United States, unless a
+copyright notice is included.  Therefore, we usually do NOT keep any
+of these books in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+We are now trying to release all our books one year in advance
+of the official release dates, leaving time for better editing.
+Please be encouraged to send us error messages even years after
+the official publication date.
+
+Please note neither this listing nor its contents are final til
+midnight of the last day of the month of any such announcement.
+The official release date of all Project Gutenberg Etexts is at
+Midnight, Central Time, of the last day of the stated month.  A
+preliminary version may often be posted for suggestion, comment
+and editing by those who wish to do so.
+
+Most people start at our sites at:
+https://gutenberg.org
+http://promo.net/pg
+
+
+Those of you who want to download any Etext before announcement
+can surf to them as follows, and just download by date; this is
+also a good way to get them instantly upon announcement, as the
+indexes our cataloguers produce obviously take a while after an
+announcement goes out in the Project Gutenberg Newsletter.
+
+http://www.ibiblio.org/gutenberg/etext03
+or
+ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/docs/books/gutenberg/etext03
+
+Or /etext02, 01, 00, 99, 98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 92, 91 or 90
+
+Just search by the first five letters of the filename you want,
+as it appears in our Newsletters.
+
+
+Information about Project Gutenberg (one page)
+
+We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work.  The
+time it takes us, a rather conservative estimate, is fifty hours
+to get any etext selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright
+searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc.  This
+projected audience is one hundred million readers.  If our value
+per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2
+million dollars per hour this year as we release fifty new Etext
+files per month, or 500 more Etexts in 2000 for a total of 3000+
+If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total
+should reach over 300 billion Etexts given away by year's end.
+
+The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away One Trillion Etext
+Files by December 31, 2001.  [10,000 x 100,000,000 = 1 Trillion]
+This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers,
+which is only about 4% of the present number of computer users.
+
+At our revised rates of production, we will reach only one-third
+of that goal by the end of 2001, or about 4,000 Etexts unless we
+manage to get some real funding.
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation has been created
+to secure a future for Project Gutenberg into the next millennium.
+
+We need your donations more than ever!
+
+As of July 12, 2001 contributions are only being solicited from people in:
+Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho,
+Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota,

+Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota,
+Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia,
+Wisconsin, and Wyoming.
+
+We have filed in about 45 states now, but these are the only ones
+that have responded.
+
+As the requirements for other states are met,
+additions to this list will be made and fund raising
+will begin in the additional states.  Please feel
+free to ask to check the status of your state.
+
+In answer to various questions we have received on this:
+
+We are constantly working on finishing the paperwork
+to legally request donations in all 50 states.  If
+your state is not listed and you would like to know
+if we have added it since the list you have, just ask.
+
+While we cannot solicit donations from people in
+states where we are not yet registered, we know
+of no prohibition against accepting donations
+from donors in these states who approach us with
+an offer to donate.
+
+
+International donations are accepted,
+but we don't know ANYTHING about how
+to make them tax-deductible, or
+even if they CAN be made deductible,
+and don't have the staff to handle it
+even if there are ways.

+***START**THE SMALL PRINT!**FOR PUBLIC DOMAIN ETEXTS**START***
+Why is this "Small Print!" statement here?  You know: lawyers.
+They tell us you might sue us if there is something wrong with
+your copy of this etext, even if you got it for free from
+someone other than us, and even if what's wrong is not our
+fault.  So, among other things, this "Small Print!" statement
+disclaims most of our liability to you.  It also tells you how
+you may distribute copies of this etext if you want to.
+
+*BEFORE!* YOU USE OR READ THIS ETEXT
+By using or reading any part of this PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm
+etext, you indicate that you understand, agree to and accept
+this "Small Print!" statement.  If you do not, you can receive
+a refund of the money (if any) you paid for this etext by
+sending a request within 30 days of receiving it to the person
+you got it from.  If you received this etext on a physical
+medium (such as a disk), you must return it with your request.
+
+ABOUT PROJECT GUTENBERG-TM ETEXTS
+This PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm etext, like most PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm etexts,
+is a "public domain" work distributed by Professor Michael S. Hart
+through the Project Gutenberg Association (the "Project").
+Among other things, this means that no one owns a United States copyright
+on or for this work, so the Project (and you!) can copy and
+distribute it in the United States without permission and
+without paying copyright royalties.  Special rules, set forth
+below, apply if you wish to copy and distribute this etext
+under the "PROJECT GUTENBERG" trademark.
+
+Please do not use the "PROJECT GUTENBERG" trademark to market
+any commercial products without permission.
+
+To create these etexts, the Project expends considerable
+efforts to identify, transcribe and proofread public domain
+works.  Despite these efforts, the Project's etexts and any
+medium they may be on may contain "Defects".  Among other
+things, Defects may take the form of incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other
+intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged
+disk or other etext medium, a computer virus, or computer
+codes that damage or cannot be read by your equipment.
+
+LIMITED WARRANTY; DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES
+But for the "Right of Replacement or Refund" described below,
+[1] Michael Hart and the Foundation (and any other party you may
+receive this etext from as a PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm etext) disclaims
+all liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including
+legal fees, and [2] YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE OR
+UNDER STRICT LIABILITY, OR FOR BREACH OF WARRANTY OR CONTRACT,
+INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE
+OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE
+POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
+
+If you discover a Defect in this etext within 90 days of
+receiving it, you can receive a refund of the money (if any)
+you paid for it by sending an explanatory note within that
+time to the person you received it from.  If you received it
+on a physical medium, you must return it with your note, and
+such person may choose to alternatively give you a replacement
+copy.  If you received it electronically, such person may
+choose to alternatively give you a second opportunity to
+receive it electronically.
+
+THIS ETEXT IS OTHERWISE PROVIDED TO YOU "AS-IS".  NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ARE MADE TO YOU AS
+TO THE ETEXT OR ANY MEDIUM IT MAY BE ON, INCLUDING BUT NOT
+LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
+PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
+
+Some states do not allow disclaimers of implied warranties or
+the exclusion or limitation of consequential damages, so the
+above disclaimers and exclusions may not apply to you, and you
+may have other legal rights.
+
+INDEMNITY
+You will indemnify and hold Michael Hart, the Foundation,
+and its trustees and agents, and any volunteers associated
+with the production and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm
+texts harmless, from all liability, cost and expense, including
+legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of the
+following that you do or cause:  [1] distribution of this etext,
+[2] alteration, modification, or addition to the etext,
+or [3] any Defect.
+
+DISTRIBUTION UNDER "PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm"
+You may distribute copies of this etext electronically, or by
+disk, book or any other medium if you either delete this
+"Small Print!" and all other references to Project Gutenberg,
+or:
+
+[1]  Only give exact copies of it.  Among other things, this
+     requires that you do not remove, alter or modify the
+     etext or this "small print!" statement.  You may however,
+     if you wish, distribute this etext in machine readable
+     binary, compressed, mark-up, or proprietary form,
+     including any form resulting from conversion by word
+     processing or hypertext software, but only so long as
+     *EITHER*:
+
+     [*]  The etext, when displayed, is clearly readable, and
+          does *not* contain characters other than those
+          intended by the author of the work, although tilde
+          (~), asterisk (*) and underline (_) characters may
+          be used to convey punctuation intended by the
+          author, and additional characters may be used to
+          indicate hypertext links; OR
+
+     [*]  The etext may be readily converted by the reader at
+          no expense into plain ASCII, EBCDIC or equivalent
+          form by the program that displays the etext (as is
+          the case, for instance, with most word processors);
+          OR
+
+     [*]  You provide, or agree to also provide on request at
+          no additional cost, fee or expense, a copy of the
+          etext in its original plain ASCII form (or in EBCDIC
+          or other equivalent proprietary form).
+
+[2]  Honor the etext refund and replacement provisions of this
+     "Small Print!" statement.
+
+[3]  Pay a trademark license fee to the Foundation of 20% of the
+     gross profits you derive calculated using the method you
+     already use to calculate your applicable taxes.  If you
+     don't derive profits, no royalty is due.  Royalties are
+     payable to "Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation"
+     the 60 days following each date you prepare (or were
+     legally required to prepare) your annual (or equivalent
+     periodic) tax return.  Please contact us beforehand to
+     let us know your plans and to work out the details.

+[CM#01][cm01b10.txt]3838
+
+Adversity is solitary, while prosperity dwells in a crowd
+Comeliness of his person, which at all times pleads powerfully
+Everything in the world bore a double aspect
+Hearsay liable to be influenced by ignorance or malice
+Hopes they (enemies) should hereafter become our friends
+I should praise you more had you praised me less
+It is the usual frailty of our sex to be fond of flattery
+Mistrust is the sure forerunner of hatred
+Necessity is said to be the mother of invention
+Never approached any other man near enough to know a difference
+Not to repose too much confidence in our friends
+Prefer truth to embellishment
+Rather out of contempt, and because it was good policy
+The Massacre of St. Bartholomew's Day

+
+A cardinal may be poisoned, stabbed, got rid of altogether
+A good friend when a friend at all, which was rare
+A King's son, a King's father, and never a King
+A lingering fear lest the sick man should recover
+A king is made for his subjects, and not the subjects for him
+Admit our ignorance, and not to give fictions and inventions
+Aptitude did not come up to my desire
+Arranged his affairs that he died without money
+Artagnan, captain of the grey musketeers
+Believed that to undertake and succeed were only the same things
+But with a crawling baseness equal to her previous audacity
+Capacity was small, and yet he believed he knew everything
+Compelled to pay, who would have preferred giving voluntarily
+Conjugal impatience of the Duc de Bourgogne
+Countries of the Inquisition, where science is a crime
+Danger of inducing hypocrisy by placing devotion too high
+Death came to laugh at him for the sweating labour he had taken
+Depopulated a quarter of the realm
+Desmarets no longer knew of what wood to make a crutch
+Enriched one at the expense of the other
+Exceeded all that was promised of her, and all that I had hoped
+Few would be enriched at the expense of the many
+For penance: "we must make our servants fast"
+For want of better support I sustained myself with courage
+Found it easier to fly into a rage than to reply
+From bad to worse was easy
+He had pleased (the King) by his drugs
+He limped audaciously
+He was often firm in promises
+He was so good that I sometimes reproached him for it
+He was born bored; he was so accustomed to live out of himself
+He liked nobody to be in any way superior to him
+He was scarcely taught how to read or write
+He was accused of putting on an imperceptible touch of rouge
+Height to which her insignificance had risen
+His death, so happy for him and so sad for his friends
+His habits were publicly known to be those of the Greeks
+His great piety contributed to weaken his mind
+I abhorred to gain at the expense of others
+Ignorance and superstition the first of virtues
+Imagining themselves everywhere in marvellous danger of capture
+In order to say something cutting to you, says it to himself
+Indiscreet and tyrannical charity
+Interests of all interested painted on their faces
+It is a sign that I have touched the sore point
+Jesuits: all means were good that furthered his designs
+Juggle, which put the wealth of Peter into the pockets of Paul
+King was being wheeled in his easy chair in the gardens
+Less easily forget the injuries we inflict than those received
+Madame de Maintenon in returning young and poor from America
+Make religion a little more palpable
+Manifesto of a man who disgorges his bile
+Mightily tired of masters and books
+Monseigneur, who had been out wolf-hunting
+More facility I have as King to gratify myself
+My wife went to bed, and received a crowd of visitors
+Never been able to bend her to a more human way of life
+Never was a man so ready with tears, so backward with grief
+No means, therefore, of being wise among so many fools
+Not allowing ecclesiastics to meddle with public affairs
+Of a politeness that was unendurable
+Oh, my lord! how many virtues you make me detest
+Omissions must be repaired as soon as they are perceived
+Others were not allowed to dream as he had lived
+People who had only sores to share
+People with difficulty believe what they have seen
+Persuaded themselves they understood each other
+Polite when necessary, but insolent when he dared
+Pope excommunicated those who read the book or kept it
+Pope not been ashamed to extol the Saint-Bartholomew
+Promotion was granted according to length of service
+Received all the Court in her bed
+Reproaches rarely succeed in love
+Revocation of the edict of Nantes
+Rome must be infallible, or she is nothing
+Said that if they were good, they were sure to be hated
+Saw peace desired were they less inclined to listen to terms
+Scarcely any history has been written at first hand
+Seeing him eat olives with a fork!
+She lose her head, and her accomplice to be broken on the wheel
+Spark of ambition would have destroyed all his edifice
+Spoil all by asking too much
+Spoke only about as much as three or four women
+Sulpicians
+Supported by unanswerable reasons that did not convince
+Suspicion of a goitre, which did not ill become her
+Teacher lost little, because he had little to lose
+The clergy, to whom envy is not unfamiliar
+The porter and the soldier were arrested and tortured
+The shortness of each day was his only sorrow
+The most horrible sights have often ridiculous contrasts
+The argument of interest is the best of all with monks
+The nothingness of what the world calls great destinies
+The safest place on the Continent
+There was no end to the outrageous civilities of M. de Coislin
+Touched, but like a man who does not wish to seem so
+Unreasonable love of admiration, was his ruin
+We die as we have lived, and 'tis rare it happens otherwise
+Whatever course I adopt many people will condemn me
+Whitehall, the largest and ugliest palace in Europe
+Who counted others only as they stood in relation to himself
+Wise and disdainful silence is difficult to keep under reverses
+With him one's life was safe
+World; so unreasoning, and so little in accord with itself

+Were my generals as great fools as some of my Ministers
+What they need is abstinence, prohibitions, thwartings
+What do young women stand in need of?--Mothers!
+Whatever course I adopt many people will condemn me
+When the only security of a King rests upon his troops
+When one has been pretty, one imagines that one is still so
+When kings become prisoners they are very near death
+When women rule their reign is always stormy and troublous
+When one has seen him, everything is excusable
+Where the knout is the logician
+Which crime in power has interest to render impenetrable
+While the Queen was blamed, she was blindly imitated
+Whispered in his mother's ear, "Was that right?"
+Whitehall, the largest and ugliest palace in Europe
+Who counted others only as they stood in relation to himself
+Who confound logic with their wishes
+Who complains is shot as a conspirator
+Wife: property or of furniture, useful to his house
+Wise and disdainful silence is difficult to keep under reverses
+Wish you had the generosity to show, now and again, less wit
+Wish art to eclipse nature
+With us, unfortunately, suspicion is the same as conviction
+With him one's life was safe
+Women who misconduct themselves are pitiless and severe
+Won for himself a great name and great wealth by words
+World; so unreasoning, and so little in accord with itself
+Would you like to be a cardinal?  I can manage that
+"Would be a pity," she said, "to stop when so fairly on the road"
+Would cease to rule the day he became just
+You are a King; you weep, and yet I go
+You never look in a mirror when you pass it
+You know, madame, that he generally gets everything he wants
+You tell me bad news: having packed up, I had rather go
+Young Prince suffered from the rickets
+Young girls seldom take much notice of children
+Your swords have rusted in their scabbards
+
