Page "Józef Boruwłaski" Paragraph 7

When Stanisław II acceded to the throne of Poland, he took Boruwlaski under his protection.

When Boruwlaski fell in love with the new companion of the countess, Isalina Barbutan, the countess threw him out.

The King interceded on his behalf, giving him a small allowance and a coach to travel in, and, with the royal backing, he married Isalina.

At first, Isalina, the child of a French couple who had settled in Poland, was reluctant to marry Joseph, but he bombarded her with love-letters and won her heart.
