The Early Life of HRH the Prince George William Frederick


The Early Life of HRH the Prince George William Frederick
The Prince who will later become King George III was something of an enigma. His teachers called him lazy but he was devoted to learning so that he would become a great king in the future. He studied astronomy, mathematics, Latin, Greek, French, German, as well as agriculture which became one of his favourite pastimes next to theology. His childhood was dominated by his overbearing mother's ambitions for her children and his father's confrontations with his father, King George II. Despite him not being his parents' favourite child, he was to be the next patriarch of the dynasty. This brought challenges when his brothers refused to obey his orders when he became King. 

George's father, Frederick Louis Prince of Wales doted on all of his children but had trouble alternating between taking care of his family and slighting his mother and father. Once he had passed, a myriad of handwritten instructions was given to his 12-year-old son George on what he should do when he was king. Prince George followed each one to the very letter for every day of his life.

However, despite some controversies in his early reign, he became the most glorious national icon of his time for his pious and humble personality and work ethic.

This is why when some people hear the name of King George III, they do not sneer but rejoice in this good king's memory.

God Save The King!

Etiquette for the Ladies-in-Waiting by Miss Delaney Burney

If you find a cough tickling your throat, you must arrest it from making any sound. If you find yourself choking with forbearance, you must choke but not cough.  In the second place, you must not sneeze. If you have a vehement cold, you must take no notice of it. If your nose membranes feel a great irritation, you must hold your breath. If a sneeze still insists upon making its way, you must oppose it by keeping your teeth grinding together, if the violence of the repulse breaks a blood vessel, you must break the blood vessel but not sneeze. In the third place, you must not upon any account stir either hand or foot. If by chance a black pin runs into your head, you must not take it out. If the pain is very great you must be sure to bear it without wincing.  If it brings tears to your eyes, you must not wipe them off, if they give a tingling by running down your cheek, you must act as if nothing was the matter. If the blood should gush by any means of the black pin, you must let it gush
