My dearest sister,
I write to you from Italy as I am now the crowned Queen of Italy. I know I was supposed to wait, but papa would have kept me prisoner. I didn't want to leave you or Anne however, you may visit me here and meet my new husband anytime you wish. I love you with my whole heart.
Your sister, Queen Amelia

Sister,
I would have loved for you and Anne to be at my wedding however, it wasn't possible father would have made a point to stop it. So we eloped. At least he respected my wishes and we had a protestant wedding. It was beautiful Sybille! He treats me with the utmost respect and I think I may even love him. Oh lord please don't let me regret saying that. He is not like most kings, he's kind, charming, and very handsome. Although, I still have yet to become pregnant im terrified of it for you always hear of the horror stories of childbirth. Well I think I've tired your eyes for one day. Please visit soon, I miss you terribly!
Your little sister, Amelia
