Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Historical and Secret Memoirs of the Empress Josephine, Vol. 2 of 2: Marie Rose Tascher De La Pagerie Of that time do I now behold the half-dubious path of events marked out by the Fates; for when thy years shall have accomplished eight times seven departures and returns of the sun, and those two numbers, each whereof, but for a different reason, is held to be a full number, shall, by a natural concurrence. Fulfil the great destinies re served to thee by the Fates - then shall the state cast its fortunes wholly upon thee and thy name; then shall the senate, then shall all good citizens. Then shall our allies, and all the people of Latium, turn their eyes to thee. Upon thee alone shall then depend the safety of the state. In short. Thou alone, clothed with the power of dictator, shall be the support of the republic, if thou shalt but escape the im pious hands of thy relations. - scipio's dream.'
