Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from English Tales and Sketches ´With clamorous demands of debt, broken bonds, And the detention of long-since-due debts, Against my honor.´ - Timon of Athens. ´How in the turmoil of life can love stand, Where there is not one heart, and one mouth, and one hand?´ Longfellow. In a charming morning-room of a charming London house, neighboring Hyde-Park, there lounged over the breakfast-table a wedded pair, - the rich merchant Ferrars, and his young wife, the Lady Lucy. Five years of married life had, in most respects, more than realized the brightest hopes which had been born and cherished in the dreaming days of courtship. Till the age of forty, the active mind of Walter Ferrars had been chiefly occupied by business, - not in mean, shuffling, speculative dealings, but on the broad basis of large transactions and an almost chivalrous system of integrity.
