Book Description
Excerpt from The Private Lives of William II.& His Consort: A Secret History of the Court of Berlin "Vive le roi!" croaked the imperial standard floating over the grey old Berlin Schloss when I alighted from my carriage at the Court-marshal's gate to report for duty on June 25, 1888, and "Long live the King!" breathed and echoed all the new brooms and old around me in the antechambers, in the state and in the living and servants' apartments of that immense pile. Yonder, just across the Puppenbrucke, at half-mast and draped in black, were seen the flags of two Queens, a widow of three and a half months the one, the other had buried the noblest of husbands but ten days before. Their palaces, which scarcely ever possessed the brazen front of right royal splendour, appeared deserted, gloomy, and melancholy beyond hope as the emblem of death wafted above them; but with us - the new masters - all was life and excitement. I had seen royalty born, and had helped to distribute its garter on the wedding-eve; I had stood at its deathbed, and in royal company had enjoyed the good things of this world, - in fact, the greater part of my life had been spent at Court; but where formerly I was welcomed as a friend and companion, I was now - such are the vicissitudes of life - merely one of a few hundred attendants.
