The toilet-table was drawn forward into the middle of the room.

This piece of furniture was generally the richest and most ornamented of all in the apartment of the Princesses.

The Queen used it in the same manner and place for undressing herself in the evening.

She went to bed in corsets trimmed with ribbon, and sleeves trimmed with lace, and wore a large neck handkerchief.

The Queen's combing cloth was presented by her first woman if she was alone at the commencement of the toilet; or, as well as the other articles, by the ladies of honour if they were come.
