     * the young men.
       It was a custom in different countries to educate with the
       heir to the throne, young noblemen of nearly the same age.
       This, as Calmet observes, answered two great and important
       ends:  1.  It excited the prince to emulation; that he might,
       as far as possible, surpass in all manly exercises, and in all
       acts of prudence and virtue, those whom one day he was to
       surpass in the elevation and dignity of his station.  2.  That
       he might acquire a correct knowledge of the disposition and
       views of those who were likely to be, under him, the highest
       officers of the state, and consequently know the better how to
       trust and employ them.
