What the Princess (afterwards Queen) Victoria said to her governess. : "I see I am nearer the throne than I thought. Now, many a child would boast; but they don't know the difficulty. There is much splendour, but there is more responsibility." and the Princess gave me her hand, saying, "I will be good." Baroness Lehzen, the Queen's governess.
