Could she have been so repulsive as Lord Egmont describes her -a fat and ill-shaped dwarf,with nothing good to recommend her, neither sense nor wit ?
*sigh* Misogyny strikes again!
In wishing to love the Prince so well he had ' ly'd egregiously; I am as incapable of wishing to love any Body else so well, as I am of wishing to love You less. God forbid any Mortal should ever have the power over me you have, or that you should ever have less. ... Adieu ,if Iwas to fill a thousand Reams of paper it would be only aiming in different phrases & still imperfectly to tell you the same thing, & assure you that since I first knew you I have been without repenting & still am & ever shall be undividedly & indisolubly Yours.'
LOLOLOL. Man, my days of considering this a gigantic soap opera are certainly reaching a middle.
The fact that he allowed other scandalous revelations (Miss Vane as Hervey's mistress, for example ) to remain in the copy of thememoirs is evidence that what he read and destroyed for the years 1730 to 1732 he regarded as far too shocking to remain among his family papers in either the autograph or the copy.
! maybe it was a hot threesome ...I see that mildred has already had this thought!
