60. I may add here the account of an experience. I was allowed to talk with Louis XIV, the grandfather* of the present king of France, who when he was in the world worshipped the Lord, read the Word, and recognised the Pope as no more than head of the church. He therefore holds very high rank in the spiritual world and is the ruler of an excellent community of Frenchmen. I once saw him as it were coming down a staircase; and on coming down I heard him say that it was like being at Versailles. Then there was silence for about two hours, after which he said that he had talked with his grandson the king of France about the Papal Bull Unigenitus, telling him to abandon his previous intention and to reject it as harmful to the French nation. He said that he had instilled this idea deep into his thoughts. This happened on the thirteenth of December 1759, around eight o'clock in the evening. * More accurately, great grandfather.
