Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Two Shall Be Born What on the outside was a castle, - a turreted, gray, picturesque pile bulking immense and mysterious on low hilltops, with a sweep of black forest behind and a thin, marshy country before, - on the inside was something like last year´s nut that the squirrels and the little boring beetles have finished with. It had borne the brunt of savage centuries, of Russian, German, Polish, and Lithuanian aggressions and reprisals; it had known the grim Brethren of the Sword, the terrible Teutonic Knights, the avenging Livonian Order. All had harrowed and winnowed it; there had been much mauling and bloodletting. But by some jape of fate it had nevertheless remained in the hands of the original proprietors, or at least their descendants the Zuleski, though, bit by bit, lands and privileges had gone; until now there was just barely enough left to keep the last lord, the noble Count Florian Sigismund Casimir, the little lady Marya Jadwiga his daughter, and Wenceslaus his servant from literally sleeping under the sky and starving to death.
