| Notes | ["B.T. visited the queen in 1851: `De ontvangst was in 't minst niet ceremonieel: geene hofdame tegenwoordig en de discoursen dus te vrijer en te gemeenzamer.' [see Reeser, p. 13 , letter to Beets 1851, before 22nd dec.)\n\nWhen Sophie died in 1877 a publisher asked B.T. to write a brochure: `...Verbeeld U de verregaande onkieschheid der speculatiezucht [...] Ik werd er akelig van nog meer dan van het doodsberigt zelf.' [Ibid. p. 272, letter to Huet, 2nd june 1877]\n\nAt the end B.T. did not only have positive ideas about Queen Sophie, she considered her: `eene allesbehalve lieve gade [...] voor haar ook alles behalve lieve man'. (Ibid. p. 402, nt. 159, letter to Jolles-Singels, 18th march 1881)"] |
