Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Man-at-Arms: A Romance of the Days of Gian Galeazzo Visconti, the Great Viper I descended slowly and with the greatest caution, hugging my sword to my hip so that it might not clash upon the stair. I had no stomach for an encounter with my father, and hoped to pass the entrance to his room of retirement unobserved, but this was not to be. The door was ajar, and my shadow fell upon the floor. As he looked up from the parchment over which he was bending, his eyes rested first upon my plumed cap, and then ran swiftly over my whole accoutrement, my gay trunks, my slashed doublet, and the taffeta-lined cloak which hung from my shoulder.
