Description
The story is told that Queen Victoria, calling once on the late Sir John Millais, took his little boy, whose face is familiar to us in more than one of the great painter''s pictures, and set him on her knee. But the child pouted, and would not be friendly, saying in explanation, You are wicked Queen Elizabeth, who cut Off good Queen Mary''s head.'' Her Majesty laughingly kissed the child saying, ''no, dear, I am Queen Of England, because I descend from good Queen Mary; and I have not a drop Of wicked Queen Elizabeth''s blood in my body.''
