cause indeed in going, bnt our coach, which was the leading one,
and his Highness's body coach, would bare suffered very much,
if the nimble boon of Buwex had not frequently poised it, or sup-
ported it with their shoulders, ham Godalming almost to Pet*
worth, and the nearer we approached the Duke's house the more
Inaccessible it seemed to be. The lost nine miles of the way
cost us six koors' time to conquer them ; and indeed we had neTer
done it, if our good master had not several times lent us a pair
of horses out of his own coach, whereby we were enabled to trace
out the way for him." Afterwards, writing of his departure on
the following day frnn Petworth to Guildford, and thence to
Windsor, he says, " I saw him (the Prince) no mme, till I found
him at supper at Windsor ; for there we were overturned (as we
had been once before the same morning), and broke our coach ;
my Lord Delawarre had the same fate, and so had several
others." — Vide Aq/ials' of Queen Anne, vol. ii. Appendix, No. 3.
