:) I mean, I could be wrong. But when I checked and saw Halsband doesn't provide any other source than Hervey himself for the whole "Miss Vane wanted me so badly that she relaunched our affair in secret and even spied for me on Fritz of Wales, even though outwardsly we still pretended to be mortal enemies, so no one ever knew!" tale, my inner sceptic struck.
Incidentally, now that I've learned how Hervey behaved in his other love triangle, I must say the cattiness in writing Algarotti that Lady Mary's looks don't match her mind looks downright mild in comparison, and again, that he kept absolutely mum about all of it and the Lady Mary haters like Pope and Horace Walpole never found out says a lot.
