Not only is the English queen-consort stimulating the Andalusian girls to play tennis by her example when she comes to Seville, but it has somehow become the fashion for ladies of all ages to leave their carriages in the Delicias and walk up and down; we saw at least a dozen doing it. Whatever flirting and intriguing goes on, the public sees nothing of it.
They gave themselves up to an excess of jealousy, which not only disturbed their joy, but was the cause of great trouble and affliction to the queen-consort, their younger sister. They had not an opportunity to communicate their thoughts to each other on the preference the emperor had given her, but were altogether employed in preparing themselves for the celebration of their marriages.
Needless to say the portrait was not that of the late Queen-Consort, who had died some years before her Royal spouse, nor was the hair hers, but when they brought the relic to the new King, he laid it back with his own hands on his father's lifeless breast, and let it go into the grave with him.

Then said she to Ni'amah, "Enter, O damsel; pay no heed to what he saith and tell not the Queen-consort that her Chamberlain opposed thine entrance."
Beautiful as his Queen-Consort was and always had been, the King was forced to admit to himself that here was a woman far more beautiful, and as he looked upon her critically, he saw that there was a light and splendour about her which only the happiness of Love can give.
The Gynaeceum in the Susa palace, at any rate was a building distinct from the general edifice, separated from the "king's house" by a court. It was itself composed of at least three sets of apartments viz. apartments for the virgins who had not yet gone into the king, apartments for the concubines, and apartments for the Queen-Consort and the other wives.
