I think, he can no more but gallop a hackney, unless he practiced riding in france. It may be, he did so; for he was there a good continuance. But I have not heard him speak much of his horsemanship. That’s no matter: if he be not a good horseman, all’s one in such a case, he must bear. Princes are absolute; they may do what they will in any thing, save what they cannot do.
