Queen Victoria’s Daily Routine

Queen Victoria rises at seven, both in winter and summer. The occupations of each hour of the day are arranged with a due appreciation of the value of time; hence she is able to undertake the heavy task of reading over all papers and documents submitted for her signature, which she never appends without careful perusal of each, besides which she personally enters into a wide correspondence, and, in addition to the hours devoted to official duties and to the hours given to walking, driving, paying and receiving visits, a portion of each day is set apart for reading of a varied character.
