Timing & context
A note on this hour

The museum times the procession at ten; the service follows. No procession duration is assumed.

Later-reign court routine, c. 1693–1715 · Observed court routine

Saint-Simon supplies the waking and meal times. This calendar follows his 08:00 waking time; Versailles’s modern overview gives 08:30. Court routines varied with councils, outings, illness and residence. No fixed bedtime ceremony is shown: Saint-Simon says it changed during the later reign.

1700 is an editorial representative year within the late-reign period described by Saint-Simon. This combines his recurring court account with clearly identified timings from Versailles’s museum overview.
