Percy Hetherington Fitzgerald : Life of George IV

'His Majesty, once more disobeying the Dook's orders, had granted to some creature an Irish peerage. 'I observe' wrote Arthur (I quote from memory), that your Majesty has been misinformed. I shall reserve the patent until I have an opportunity of learning your Majesty's pleasure upon it!!' O the groans of George, who knew his man, and whimpered under the rod.'

Century: 1850-1899     Reader/Listener/Group: Robert Louis Stevenson      Print: Book
