Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Tragic Mary Beautiful for situation, happy in the way the light visits her, noble in natural outline, favoured even in the rise and declivity of her streets, it is nevertheless as the repository of her Queen´s tragedy that Edinburgh fascinates us to herself. She is to us what Troy would be could we move now among her streets and palaces, could we learn where Helen stood forth upon the walls, or pace the rooms that Helen made beautiful by habitation. In the apartments of Holyrood we can touch the very silks that Queen Mary handled; the mirror of scolloped edge, graved with alternate doves and quatrefoils, that without contradiction reflected her features, still hangs in her chamber: the flushed tatters of her curtains are before us. And beholding these things we are seized with a passionate desire of access, an eagerness of approach: we cannot pause to wonder, or debate, or condemn; an impulse transports us: we are started on an inevitable quest.
