He said in a letter to the Duchess of Queensberry that ' a '4° COURT LIFE BELOW STAIRS. nameless person had sent him eleven messages before he would yield to a visit. ' The ' nameless person ' was the Princess, whom he visited probably on the twelfth invita- tion. The Dean seems to have been pleased with the result, for he afterwards said that the ' Princess retained her old civility ;' an admission which, coming from him, meant much. Since he had last been to Court, he had published his famous... 'Gulliver's Travels, ' which had found its way to Leicester House as well as elsewhere, and caused a good deal of merriment at the Court. The Princess had laughed heartily over the description of the Lilliputian heir who wore a high heel and a low one to his shoes ; recognising under the guise of this satire the Prince, who was at the time halting between the Whigs and Tories. When the Princess saw the Dean, she, in a humorous way, charged him with writing the book, which had been pub- lished anonymously.
