A Royal Lover.
King Alfonso of Spain is said to have allowed himself to be subjugated by the charms of a remarkably beautiful young Marquise, who, not being possessed of virtue in proportion to her charms, failed to repel the passion with which she inspired her royal lover. The Queen discovered them together. The lady fled with the utmost precipitation, and the king, exasperated by the upsetting of his arrangements, so far forgot himself as to administer a slap to her Majesty. On her return to the palace the latter openly announced her determination to leave Madrid, and subsequently left on a visit to Paris and Vienna.
