Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Canterbury Tales, Vol. 2 of 2 - What is´t that takes from thee Thy comfort, pleasure, and thy golden sleep? Why dost thou bend thine eyes upon the earth, And start so often when thou sitt´st alone? Why hast thou lost the fresh blood in thy cheek? Oh! what portents are these? Shakspeare. Towards the end of the month of February, in a winter memorably severe, a man, his wife, and their son, a boy not seven years of age, arrived at M, an obscure town on the northern frontier of Silesia, within the estates of the Count Prince de T -. A fever that attacked the husband, together with an unexpected and heavy fall of snow, impeded all further advance towards Bohemia, their ostensible place of destination. The malady proved dangerous: and the resources of benevolence (for the travelers were suspected to be indigent) would have been soon exhausted in a petty German district, not abounding in religious foundations or opulent neighbors.
