Early life
Herbert von Bismarck born in
I beg Your Royal Highness most subserviently graciously to permit me to lay at your feet my deeply reverent and heartfelt thanks for Graciously Granting me the beautiful picture.... Long it is since I have been so joyful as the joy which Your Royal Highness accorded me by granting me the portrait with your very own Highest signature. For me, the words beneath the picture render it the most valuable possession which I own, and I cannot find words to express how happy Your Royal Highness has made me. I am truly overwhelmed by the Good Grace of Your Royal Highness.... The few days which to my greatest joy I was able to spend directly at the service of Your Royal Highness will always be among the loveliest in my life and... it will be my sole ambition for all time to stand prepared to receive Your Highest orders and to serve you with all my meagre powers.[2]
