He had himself said of 'a literary lady' no doubt Hannah More 'I was obliged to speak to Miss Reynolds to let her know that I desired she would not flatter me so much. Ante, iii.293.
Poor Li, blushing at the monarch's reproof, waited patiently for the answer to his request. "Very well, so be it," cried the king impulsively, "your wish is granted.
