Excerpt from Œuvres Complètes de Marmontel, de l'Académie Française, Vol. 5: Ornée de Trente-Huit Gravures
Il avait quelque ressemblance avec sir Charles Grandisson comme lui vertueux, modérément sensible, sage dans tous ses goûts, incorruptible dans ses moeurs, possédant son ame et ses sens dans une paix inaltérable, Alcime était, dans sa jeunesse, l'homme du monde le plus considéré.
