Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Martyrdom of an Empress: With Portrait "Let them talk, let them slander, let them think what they please about me - I am used to it; it does not hurt me as it did at first; I do not care! And you, my little girl, do not take it to heart; do not try to fight my battles; do not let bitterness come into your life through me, for that, indeed, would give me pain." The Empress stopped her restless pacing up and down the room, and, putting her slender hands upon my shoulders, she looked deep into my eyes with those glorious dark-blue orbs of hers, and added, gently: "You are so young - hardly older than I was when I married. Do not allow my clouds to obscure your sky; you will have enough of your own!" How well she understood the passionate wrath I felt when witnessing the continual prejudices displayed towards her was shown clearly to me by these few words. I was then very young - very inexperienced, truly - but she was all in all to me, and the depth of my love and admiration for her pure, noble, peerless nature bridged over the difference existing in our years, and I was happy in the thought that already at that time I had become wellnigh her only con¿dante and truest friend.
