So many Successes one after another rais’d the hopes of the Allies prodigiously. The Terror the _French_ Arms had for a long time impress’d upon their Minds soon wore off, and nothing was heard every where but shouts of Joy, to see so haughty a Nation at last humbled. Our Court was more rejoic’d than any other at this great News, and every one envy’d the Fortune of the _Prussian_ Soldiers, when they saw that the Duke of _Savoy_ and the Prince of _Anhalt_ themselves, gave them the highest Encomia. At this happy Juncture was celebrated the Marriage of the Prince Royal, which had been concluded at _Hanover_, a Journey the King made thither with the Prince his Son. This young Prince had for a long time such a veneration for the Princess the Elector’s Daughter, as ’twas possible for the most accomplish’d Merit to inspire him with, and of all the Princesses in the World she was like to be the most acceptable to her Subjects; she represented to us the Idea of the late Queen, and as she was her Niece and design’d to succeed to her Dominions, she seem’d also to have inherited all the great Qualities that made the former ador’d at our Court. The Electoral Prince of _Hanover_ married her at _Hanover_ by Proxy, in presence of the Count _de Finck_ the King’s Ambassador. The Princess set out from thence some days after with a Train becoming her present and her future Dignity. The Elector her Father had given her the most magnificent Suits of Apparel and Jewels that could be got for Money, and they were purchas’d at _Paris_ by a Man sent on purpose. The Duchess of _Orleans_ was desirous to chuse and give Directions for the Clothes, and she afterwards shewed them to _Lewis_ XIV. who thought them so rich that he said it were to be wish’d for the sake of the Mercers of _Paris_, that there were more Princesses that could afford to make such Purchases. ’Twas _Novemb. 27, 1706_, that this Princess made her public Entry at _Berlin_. The King met her about half a League out of Town. As soon as her Royal Highness perceiv’d the King’s Coach she alighted, as the King did also from his and went to meet her. After having embraced the Princess he presented the Prince Royal to her, together with his Brothers and the two Princesses. Then the King took Coach again, where the Princess plac’d herself on the King’s left hand; and the two Margraves sate over-against them; the Prince-Royal and the King’s three Brothers being mounted on Horseback. The Entry was one of the most magnificent that was ever seen. All the Troops then at _Berlin_ were under Arms, as well as all the City-Militia, and drawn up in a Line from the Out-parts of the Town quite to the Palace. The next day after the Princess’s Arrival, there was a sumptuous Feast, at which the Prince Royal and the Princess had Arm-Chairs, but for that day only; for the next day their Royal Hignesses sate in upright Chairs at the two ends of the Table.
