No. 55 To the Empress, at Paris
Osterode, March 17, 1807.
My Dear,—It is not necessary for you to go to the small plays and into a private box; it ill befits your rank; you should only go to the four great theatres, and always into the Royal box. Live as you would do if I were at Paris.
My health is very good. The cold weather has recommenced. The thermometer has been down to 8°.—Yours ever,
Napoleon.
