The marriage was most unhappy.

the prince mounted the British throne

upbringing he ought to have grown
into q sort Of saint. Instead (when
he was eighteen and the bondage OF
tutors and father was removed), he
became one of the worst bIackguards
OF his time.
This was in 1850. The moment his
education was finished Prince George
started another sort of education on
his own account. Forgetting every
lesson of decency that had been
taught him he plunged into the Wild

drank, gambled. detled the moral law.
His life was a national scandal. A
liar, a libertine, a drunksrd, q man
who gambled with money that was
not his own, he is said to have added
to his other vices by such crooked

social climbers. Though he was often

His first political act was to join
his fathers enemies in parliament.
In return for his support these poll
