Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Who poses for all the portraits of the Queen?

Answer: Lady Sarah

Lady Sarah is annoyed about looking so like the Queen because she has to pose in tight, stifling gowns all morning. But Lady Jane is jealous and thinks it would be very grand to look like the Queen.

Mrs. Teerlinc was the one who actually gave Grace the pens, saying, "You can write with it and never need to dip your pen in an ink bottle."

Answer: Dickon Greyson

Ellie explains that Richard Fitzgrey like to fancy that he's secretly a lord's son, and since Richard Fitzgrey sounds more impressive, he goes by that.

Piers Willoughby's horse slipped just as he and his opponent, Lord John Harrington, met, and Piers Willoughby's horse fell through the barrier and knocked down Lord Harrington's. Willoughby escaped with only a broken leg, while John Harrington died.

Answer: She says one of the dogs might have eaten some

7. What is the name of Carmina's cousin, who lives in the Netherlands?

11. What does Carmina say when the Queen gives her the posset she made?
