Julie de LESPINASSE (1732-1776). L.A., "Thursday evening", to Jean-Baptiste Suard; 1 page small in-8, address (part of the address sheet torn, slight wetness). "Man proposes and the devil disposes; do not count on me. Mde de St Chamans needs me, that must come before what is only my pleasure. Be good enough to tell my intention and my regrets, and I beg you also to make a note of me in the temple. Tell them that you have been kind enough to tell me their news. Good evening, if I lived a lot and lived well I would be happier and older than God". She hopes to see him on Saturday...
