"A female servant of Mr. Brown, of Northampton, being in town with her mistress, was permitted to go to the review on Monday last, and, having obtained liberty from one of the soldiers to pass in front of the ranks, she approached the Royal carriage without knowing it, and asked one of the Ladies of Honour, 'Which is the Queen?' The Queen, hearing the inquiry, immediately answered, 'I am the Queen!' 'Oh, do show me the King, then!' The King, hearing the request, instantly turned round, and said with a smile, 'I am the King!' evidently enjoying her amazement and delight. The Queen permitted the woman to hold her hand, which she had seized in the hurry of the moment, for several minutes." Greville gives us a sketch of his _bourgeoisie_ and its consequences-- "All this was very well; no great harm in it; more affable, less dignified than the late King; but, when this (a Privy Council) was over, and he might very well have sat himself quietly down and rested, he must needs put on his plainer clothes, and start on a ramble about the streets, alone, too. In Pall Mall he met Watson Taylor, and took his arm, and went up St. James's Street. There he was followed by a mob, making an uproar, and when he got near White's, a woman came up and kissed him. Belfast (who had been sworn in Privy Councillor in the morning), who saw this from White's, and Clinton, thought it time to interfere, and came out to attend him. The mob increased, and, always holding Mr. Taylor's arm, and flanked by Clinton and Belfast, who got shoved and kicked about, to their inexpressible wrath, he got back to the Palace, amid shouting and bawling and applause. When he got home, he asked them to go in and take a quiet walk in the garden, and said, 'Oh, never mind all this; when I have walked about a few times they will get used to it, and take no notice.' "They even sang songs about him in the streets, of which the following is one:-- "THE KING AND THE SAILOR. "In Portsmouth town, at the sign of the Ship, A jolly Jack Tar sat drinking flip; A messmate was there, who spun him a yarn That we'd a new King, he'd soon give him to larn. "Says sailor Ben to sailor Jim, 'He's a King and a sailor trim, And 'bout him there's no palaver or fuss, A cause, don't you know, he is one of us.' "Says sailor Ben to his messmate Jim, 'He knows that I've sailed under him; And when our ship's paid off at Chatham, I'll go and have a good stare at 'em.' "Now Ben Block he arriv'd at the park, And soon the King and Queen did mark; Says Ben, says he, 'I'll bet you a tanner, He hails you in a King-like manner.' [Illustration: Bourgeoisie.]
