Introduction

The streets of paris on september third, 17 92 were chaos and anarchy. Hasty tribunals were built outside prisons for aristocrats to be swept through one at a time. One of marie antoinette's favorite ladies in waiting was killed by the crowd. Her body was torn apart, stabbed and beaten. Those with knives cut pieces of her flesh to keep as souvenirs. And so from cafe cafe, the princess's lifeless head was placed before patrons who were told to drink in celebration of the death of traitors. You're listening to noble blood, a production of ehart radio and aron manky. Listener discretion advised.
