Editing Stanisław Leszczyński (section)

==First loss of throne==
The vast majority of Poles hastened to repudiate Stanisław and make their peace with Augustus. Henceforth a mere pensioner of Charles XII, Stanisław accompanied [[Ernst Detlof von Krassow|Krassow]]'s army corps in its retreat to [[Swedish Pomerania]]. On [[Treaty of Thorn (1709)|the restoration of Augustus]], Stanisław abdicated the Polish Crown (though he retained the royal title) in exchange for the little [[Principality]] of [[Palatine Zweibrücken]]. In 1716, an assassination was attempted by a Saxon officer, Lacroix, but Stanisław was saved by [[Stanisław Poniatowski (1676-1762)|Stanisław Poniatowski]] (father of the future king [[Stanisław August Poniatowski|Stanisław II August]]). Forced to leave Deux-Ponts in 1719 after the death of Charles XII [[Prince#Prince_exercising_head_of_state's_authority|in whose name he was Count Palatine]], Stanisław Leszczyński then resided at [[Wissembourg]] in [[Alsace]]. In 1725, he had the satisfaction of seeing his daughter [[Marie Leszczyńska|Maria]] become queen consort of [[Louis XV]] of France. From 1725 to 1733, Stanisław lived at the [[Château de Chambord]].
