Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Daltons, Vol. 2 of 2: Or Three Roads in Life One last glance at the Mazzarini Palace, and we leave it for ever. Seated in the drawing-room, where Lady Hester once held sway, in the very chair around which swarmed her devoted courtiers and admirers, Mrs. Ricketts now reclined, pretty much on the same terms, and with probably some of the same sentiments, as Louis Blanc, or his friend Albert, might have experienced on finding themselves domesticated within the Palace of the Luxembourg. They were, so to say, parallel circumstances. There had been a great reverse of fortune, an abdication, and a flight. The sycophants of the day before were the masters now, and none disputed the pretensions of any bold enough to assume dictation. To be sure, Mrs. Ricketts´ rule, like Ledru Rollin´s, was but a Provisional Government; for already the bills for an approaching sale of every thing were posted over the front of the Palace, and Racca Morlache´s people were cataloguing every article with a searching accuracy, very tormenting to the beholders.
