Katharina Schratt the actress: Her presence was great on the stage, But greater still on a mattress, When she performed for fun, not wage. A King could turn into jelly, When on the bed she shrieked and rolled; She could make an old King happy� �And make a happy King feel old� � P. J. Oszmann (1998) Illustration: Montage in Photoshop (from the cover of a Hungarian book about Franz Joseph�s lovers and portrait of the actress) * Katharina Schratt Viennese actress was the mistress of Emperor Franz Joseph (King of Hungary 1848-1916)

This must be the precursor to the infamous casting couch. This poem has the feel of a classic.
