Note 154 — V THE HEIRESS OF GREAT BRITAIN (HERRENHAUSEN, 1701-1714)
Reading edition
After Queen Sophia Charlotte’s death there was less love lost than ever between the King, her husband, and the Elector, her brother. In 1711, the Electress Sophia, speaking of a melancholy journey of her son-in-law’s, observes that it was a Divine punishment on him that he should hate the Elector without any reason whatever.
