He sought a magic potion/powder that he would put into one of her favorite perfumes. One day, while Lady Jane was at tea with the ladies of the County, he snuck through her open window and poured the magic powder into her perfume. Just a few drops in her perfume was all that he needed. A spritz of perfume on her skin, and upon contact, the powder will work its magic. (And, boy, was she in for a big surprise!) He knew that she liked to spritz the perfume on herself before going out to meet Lord Bigley in the Sacred Garden. That was a ritual for her since the day she and Lord Bigley started their affair.
Lord Byron also made sure to bring a "special guest" with him, to join him as he hid in the rose bushes. Since they lived in a castle, there was no shortage of mice. So he brought one along with him. There was going be a full moon that night, and he knew that that night a sweet rendez-vous was planned when the bell tower clock struck midnight.
At quarter to midnight, Lady Jane spritzed on her favorite perfume and got into her favorite blue evening robe. She could hardly wait until she met her beau at the stroke of midnight. She quickly and quietly slinked away into the dark night and walked towards the Sacred Garden. She could smell the sweet aroma of the roses in the garden... the scent being carried by the slight breeze in the air. She heard a little rustling, but thought nothing of it.... Then she heard the galloping hooves of Lord Bigley's white mare. "Lord Bigley?", she inquired. "My love...", came a voice in the darkness. "Oh, Lord Bigley, I missed you so much!", Lady Jane cried. "I, too, you, my love...", replied Lord Byron. The two of them cuddled up by the fountain in the garden and shared a long-awaited kiss, while the fountain cascaded away in the background. Thinking this was the perfect time to act, Lord Byron opened his money sack where he hid his furry friend, Ms. Mousette. She quickly dogged for the entwined couple, Lady Jane let out such a shriek, one that was never heard in all of Capuolla County, the clock struck midnight, and upon the 12th dong, the magic of the powder turned Lady Jane's light blue evening gown into a birthday suit! Her shriek was sooo loud that all the servants woke up and ran straight to the Sacred Garden. And what happened that night left Lady Jane embarrased and the servants and all the inhabitants in Capuolla County flabbergasted because of what they all witnessed.... for it was that night where Lady Jane was exposed for the wanton hussy that she was. Since then, Lady Jane never was able to salvage her ruined reputation... one that was ruined forever.
The moral of the story: When you sneak by love for love, love has a way of finding you out and revealing you for the true person that you are.
THE END

I like Lord Bilgey better. It kind of suggests a nautical theme.
Enough frivolity. To the story . . .
Lady Jane was silly to think that Lord Byron was so naive that he wouldn't pick up on her indiscretions. Lord Byron noticed that she had become cool, that she was somewhat secretive about what she did during the day, when he was working hard, out surveying his realm. So he made it a point to arrange contact with her at odd times. He'd call her and ask to go to lunch, or he'd come home early in the afternoon, just to spend some "quality time together." He noticed when what should be regarded as romantic gestures would annoy her. Finally, one day he was going through the file where they kept their important leaseholds, and he noticed love letters between Lady Jane and Lord Bigley. He confronted her with the letters, and banished her to a far kingdom, where cigarettes are often used as currency.

so he composed a letter. Signing it Lord Bigley, he sent it off by mysterious courier to Lady Jane. The missive read:
My Dearest Jane,
My heart (and another part)
Truly miss you so.
Please meet me in the garden,
Beside the mistletoe.
I'll kiss you till you are giddy,
Till you fall upon your knees.
And when you do just that,
You can do just as you please.
See you at midnight.
Your servant, etc.
Bigley
In the cloak of darkness, Byron waited in the garden. Sure enough, at the stroke of midnight, Lady Jane wandered into the garden whispering for Bigley. As she neared the mistletoe, Byron jumped out and confronted her. She was mortified to have been caught, and grovelled for forgiveness. Remembering the explicit missive that lured the wanton Lady Jane to the garden, he was struck by a wondrous thought. "Just pretend I'm Bigley and I'll spare the both of you..." Lady Jane, true to form, was more than eager to comply.
