23, 1662. • Diary.
I68 COURT GOSSIP [chaf. vn education. It may be that the English dances were unknown to her. At all events it was only some few weeks later that she danced with the King at another great Court ball,^ and she soon became so passionately attached to the amusement that she never let a chance of it escape her. Sir Walter Scott, in his notes to Dryden's works, unjustly says that Catherine's greatest fault was her being educated a Catholic, her greatest misfortune bearing the King ...no children, and her greatest foible an excessive love of dancing. It must be admitted that a more innocent foible seldom has existed, and that in such a Court as that of Whitehall, if her greatest fault were that of her religion she must indeed have shone as an example! It was at this New Year's Eve ball that Lady Castlemaine's blaze of costly jewels far outshone those worn by the Queen and the Duchess of York together, and that people told each other she had coaxed the King to hand over to her all the Christmas presents given in usual custom by the peers.
