Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Court of Charles IV: A Romance of the Escorial I, your humble servant, had neither home nor place in Madrid, neither kin nor possessions, and was wandering through the city, cursing the luckless hour in which I left my native town for the inhospitable capital, when I had recourse to the pages of the "Diario" newspaper in quest of some respectable employment. The paper proved a means of rescue to the hapless Gabriel - destitute, hungry, alone, and despairing - for within three days of having given publicity in type to the superior qualities with which I believed myself gifted by nature, I was taken into the service of an actress at the Theatre "del Principe" Pepita Gonzalez by name, La Gonzalez, This happened in 1805; the episode I am about to narrate did not however occur till two years later, in 1807, when I, if I calculate rightly, was sixteen years old, indeed very nearly seventeen.
