ten o'clock
The beautiful women , who softened her cold and majestic bearing by their charms , saddened and irritated her , although the King gave her no reason to be jealous : on the contrary he was most attentive to his consort and did not gaze at any of the ladies present . The supper was served very ceremoniously . The dishes were brought in with great pomp , and every toast was announced by trumpet and drums . After ten o'clock all left the table in excellent humour ; the King accompanied by Sulkowski and Brühl went to his apartment . Passing the row of ladies Augustus III affected not to see any of them , but when he passed Brühl 's wife he exchanged with her a significant look . Sulkowski did not see anything , neither did he guess anything . Taking advantage of the King 's good humour he decided to speak to him confidentially and try to overthrow Brühl .
