noble Is'avarran house, reduced to. poverty through the Intermittent wars that convulsed the country. Duvannes had a beautiful daughter, Jeanne, whom he kept secluded in his little house in the suburbs of Paris. One "day, so the story goes, when Henri and his courtiers were returning from a hunt, they passed Jeanne on the road. Henri became infatuated with her beauty, told one of the huntsmen to follow her, learned she was the daughter of his deformtd jester and laid siege to her heart.

i Duvannes, learning- of his da.ughter's ruin, hired a bravo. Claude Gusmeister, a German sohiier of fortune, to lay in wait and shoot Henri as he hunted in (he royal forest. Gusmeister is Spara-fucile of the opera, by the way, but instead of shooting Henri, Gusmeister -missed the King and dangerously wounded one of his atten'iarjts with a trots-bow bolt. He was run down and killed by the party of huntsmen while Duvannes, hearing of Gusmefster's death, and thinking his plot would be revealed, jumped into the Seine. Jeanne, learning of her father's death and of the deatli of Gusmeisteri went to the king and told of the whole plot, asking for forgiveness, which Henri granted.

Instead of the pitiful death by Spara-. fucile's dagger, as the opera of Vedi tells it, Jeanne was married by the king to one of his foresters.
