Voltaire, addressing Charles-Augustin de Ferriol d’Argental as the protector of his soul, writes that he has not done anything stupid because he has done nothing at all. He adds that he has not seen either a man nor a priest but that he will see the loveliest of men and hopes to pay court to them first. In a postscript, he asks how the ‘other angel’, d’Argental’s wife, is.
