facts in this section:
I could feel no comparable
interest in the portrait of Barbara Villiers (*). She
seemed a cold, almost forbidding character, nor did the information that
she was an ancestress carry much conviction. Not at least until many years
later when, in the course of an official visit to Sweden as an Under-Secretary
at the Foreign Office, I was presented with an elaborate genealogical table
tracing my descent to a saintly early Swedish king. The connecting link,
incongruously enough was Barbara. Sir Anthony Eden, Prime Minister of
Great Britain. (*) Barbara Villiers was the nymphomaniac mistress of
Charles II of England See the Eden family.
