Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Ahalya Baee: A Poem The observations I have made in my preface to the former legends, apply equally to this of Ahalya Baee. I have added no fictitious circumstances to the story or characters. I have only taken those liberties regarding supposed feeling and description, which a person detailing what he has in a general abridged way, but with no intention of altering the truth, naturally takes; in short, the difference of the story from a bare record, or from the story-teller when the story-teller is warmed and interested by his subject. It may perhaps be thought that, in representing the daughter of Ahalya as so young at the time of her brother´s death, and soothing her mother´s sorrow with so many childish endearments, I have stepped beyond this rule; for we are told in another place that she was already married. But when we consider how very early betrothments take place in that country, her being still as a child with her mother is by no means inconsistent with that fact.
