When she thought that Albert promised her a quickie,
Greatly aroused was Queen Vicky,
But all she got was a dam’ hickey.

Gussie was always a tad over-sensitive about the birthmark on her neck. She was afraid that people might think it was a hickey.

When asked, a friend said she always told people she wanted to be a princess when she grew up. She said she never understood why this caused laughter.
