Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Howadji in Syria My dear Friend, - In making you the Pacha of two tales, I confess with the Syrians, that a friend is fairer than the roses of Damascus, and more costly than the pearls of Omman. You, of all men, will not be surprised by these pages, for you shared with me the fascination of novelty in those eldest lands, - which interpreted to us both that pleasant story of Raphael. When his friend, Marc Antonio, discovered him engaged upon the Sistine picture and exclaimed, -"Cospetto! another Madonna?" Raphael gravely answered, -"Amico mio, my friend, were all artists to paint her portrait forever, they could never exhaust her beauty."
