Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Blithe McBride Early on an April evening, in the year of grace 1657, a little girl went up Crocker´s Lane in Whitefriars. She carried an earthen jug, and she was going to fetch water from the conduit in Fleet Street. She never came back. The little girl was called Blithe, because some one whom she had forgotten first had called her so, and McBride, because her uncle, with whom she dwelt, was Roaring Tim McBride. She could not have told her age, for she did not know her birthday, but she looked to be twelve years old, or maybe thirteen. She was a slender, gipsyish creature, brown-haired, brown-eyed, brown-skinned, in a shabby, torn gown of russet, and a petticoat of faded scarlet, with heavy brogans on her bare feet, and a kerchief of scarlet bound above her hair.
