Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sordello: A Story From Robert Browning Nearly seven hundred years ago the river Mincio formed around Mantua a great marsh, which separated the city from the low mountains covered with firs, larches, and rings of vineyard, among which stood the little castle of Goito. In that lonely fortress might have been seen a slender boy, in a loose page s dress, coming every sunset to sit beside each one, in turn, of the patient, marble girls who lay or crouched beneath a cumbrous font in one of the vaults, or watching the thievish birds at work among the grapes in autumn, or lurking, in the stormy winter evenings, beside the arras, and lifting a light with both hands to the embroidered, forms of the ancestors of Eccelino da Romano, surnamed il Monaco, a Ghibelline prince whose wife, Adelaide, was mistress of Goito.
