Today in history, April 13th, 1794, Lucile followed Camille to the guillotine.

From prison she sent her mother this brief yet poignant note: "Goodnight dear mama. A tear escapes from my eye. It is for you. I am going to sleep in the calm of innocence."

Everyone knows I'm not a Danton's crowd admirer, but Lucile Desmoulins always touched my heart...I don't know exactly why, but this woman's personal tragedy make me so terribily sad...:( The note she left to her mother, also push my own tears "to escape from my eyes". It¡s for her.
