The exclamation “They wished to treat me like a girl, but I will show them that I am Queen of England!” often quoted as the Queen’s, is apocryphal. It is merely part of Greville’s summary of the two letters to Melbourne, printed in The Letters of Queen Victoria, 162 and 163. It may be noted that the phrase “the Queen of England will not submit to such trickery” is omitted in The Girlhood of Queen Victoria edited by Viscount Esher, 169; and in general there are numerous verbal discrepancies between the versions of the journal and the letters in the two books. ↩
