Lady Fanny, Lady Wilhelmina, and Lady Mary Grimston looked quite beautiful.

At about half-past four I re-entered my carriage, the Crown on my head, and the Sceptre and Orb in my hands, and we proceeded the same way as we came--the crowds if possible having increased.

The enthusiasm, affection, and loyalty were really touching, and I shall ever remember this day as the _Proudest_ of my life! I came home at a little after six, really _not_ feeling tired.
[Pageheading: INCIDENTS OF THE CORONATION] At eight we dined.

Besides we thirteen--my Uncles, sister, brother, Spaeth, and the Duke's gentlemen--my excellent Lord Melbourne and Lord Surrey dined here.

Lord Melbourne came up to me and said: "I must congratulate you on this most brilliant day," and that all had gone off so well.
