It was a most beautiful day.

We have very good accounts from dear Feodore, who will, by this time, be at Langenburg.
Believe me always, my dearest Uncle, your very affectionate and dutiful Niece, VICTORIA.
[Pageheading: HISTORICAL READING] _The King of the Belgians to the Princess Victoria._ LAEKEN, _18th October 1834._ MY DEAREST LOVE,--I am happy to learn that Tunbridge Wells has done you good.

Health is the first and most important gift of Providence; without it we are poor, miserable creatures, though the whole earth were our property; therefore I trust that you will take great care of your own.

I feel convinced that air and exercise are most useful for you.

In your leisure moments I hope that you study a little; history is what I think the most important study for you.
