Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Diamond Cut Diamond, Vol. 2: A Story of Tuscan Life and Other Stories By the united efforts of the Emperor Charles the Fifth and the Medicean Pope, Clement the Seventh, liberty was finally destroyed, and the despotism of the Medici established in Florence in the year 1531. In the year 1631, Ferdinand the Second, the fifth grand-duke, was reigning in Tuscany; and a hundred years of despotism had done their work on the country according to the immutable laws in such cases appointed and ordained. At the former epoch there was assuredly much passing among those lovely vine-and-olive-clad hills, and beneath those pure azure skies, which might have made angels weep, if we are to suppose them to look down on the fair earth man has inhabited, and the use he makes of it.
