I could imagine Peter feeling satisfied about his wife's hero getting properly dissed and put in his place by a superior monarch.
True, but that's why I included "Peter's use of it": he's presenting the practice of throwing away orange peels as reflecting badly on the person who does it. I still consider it at least possible he doesn't know this is Fritz (if it is), and that it's come to him through an intermediary.
when her son Paul found it among her papers and exclaimed he was very relieved to finally have it settled in his mind his mother didn't kill his father
I should learn Russian someday so we can evaluate all the evidence properly. *g* #EternalOptimist
