TO THE EMPRESS, AT PARIS.
_Eylau_, _February 17, 1807_, 3 A.M.
Your letter to hand, informing me of your arrival at Paris. I am very glad to know you are there. My health is good.
The battle of Eylau was very sanguinary, and very hardly contested.
Corbineau was slain. He was a very brave man. I had grown very fond of him.
Adieu, dear; it is as warm here as in the month of April; everything is thawing. My health is good.
NAPOLEON.

I write you two lines. My health is good. I am moving to set my army in winter quarters.
It rains and thaws as in the month of April. We have not yet had one cold day.
Adieu, dear.--Yours ever,
NAPOLEON.

I write you two lines, dear, in order that you may not be uneasy. My health is very good, and my affairs prosper.
I have again put my army into cantonments.
The weather is extraordinary; it freezes and thaws; it is wet and unsettled.
Adieu, dear.--Yours ever,
NAPOLEON.

_Liebstadt_, _February 21, 1807_, 2 A.M.
Your letter of the 4th February to hand; I see with pleasure that your health is good. Paris will thoroughly re-establish it by giving you cheerfulness and rest, and a return to your accustomed habits.
I am wonderfully well. The weather and the country are vile. My affairs are fairly satisfactory. It thaws and freezes within twenty-four hours; there can never have been known such an extraordinary winter.
Adieu, dear; I love you, I think of you, and wish to know that you are contented, cheerful, and happy.--Yours ever,
NAPOLEON.

_Liebstadt, February 21, 1807, Noon._
_My Dear_,--Your letter of the 8th received; I see with pleasure that you have been to the opera, and that you propose holding receptions weekly. Go occasionally to the theatre, and always into the Royal box.
I notice also with pleasure the banquets you are giving.
I am very well. The weather is still unsettled; it freezes and thaws.
I have once more put my army into cantonments in order to rest them.
Never be doleful, love me, and believe in my entire affection.
NAPOLEON.

_Osterode_, _February 23, 1807_, 2 P.M.
_My Dear_,--Your letter of the 10th received. I am sorry to see you are a little out of sorts.
I have been in the country for the past month, experiencing frightful weather, because it has been unsettled, and varying from cold to warm within a week. Still, I am very well.
Try and pa.s.s your time pleasantly; have no anxieties, and never doubt the love I bear you.
