Epigraph
Оглавление‘The darling pleasure of her soul was power.’
Lord Hervey, Memoirs
‘She loved the real possession of power rather than the show of it, and whatever she did herself that was either wise or popular, she always desired that the King should have the full credit as well as the advantage of the measure, conscious that, by adding to his respectability, she was most likely to maintain her own.’
Walter Scott on Caroline of Ansbach, The Heart of Midlothian, 1818
