Deceived (41 page)

And she turned once more into the warmth of his embrace.

 

What news! A certain vivacious princess, whose lack of enthusiasm for the amorous skills of Englishmen was reported in this paper last year, has found eternal bliss with her very own Adonis in the form of the Earl of S. It is to be assumed that the earl was successful in changing the lady's mind on the subject of Englishmen being the very worst lovers in the world, for apparently the couple are expecting their first child in a few months' time. What alacrity! What enthusiasm! We wish the earl and countess a very happy and amorous future together.

—The Gentlemen's Athenian Mercury,
May 18,1817
