“Day by day her influence and digniy increased... No gramt of lands was conferred upon any woman except under he seal... Sometimes she would sit in the balcony of her palace, whle the nobles would present themselves, and listen to her dictates. Coin was struck in her name...

[Until] at last he authority reached such a pass that the King was such only in name.”
