Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Broken Vow, or the Forced Marriage Near the village of Lenox, one of the most charming of mountain towns in Massachusetts, amid the wildest luxuriance of scenery, sunny slopes, upon whose side the "spangled meadows green," pleasantly invite the eye; hills, upon whose gentle slopes patches of cultivated fields contrast with the dark foliage of the old woods which the axe has spared, and the whole surrounded, in the misty distance, by looming eminences, among which, Bald Mountain raises his majestic head, stands a snug farm house. A mountain rill murmurs pleasantly before the door, and all around, the voice of birds and drowsy humming of bees, fall musically on the ear. The house is nearly hid from view by graceful, drooping elms, and around its porch the honey-suckle and rose unite their blossoms and their perfume. The owner of this pretty place, is Hiram Dalton, a farmer well to do. His wife sleeps in the village cemetery, and he lives here with his son Foster, and his aged mother, who has long since seen her three score years and ten. A bustling young woman, named Nancy Peabody, the daughter of one of the poorer farmers of the neighborhood, and Elijah, or Lige Bates, a brisk, active, young fellow, who assists Hiram about the farm, complete the household.
