Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Celebrated Crimes, Vol. 2 of 3 On the night of the 15th or 16th of January, in the year 1343, the inhabitants of Naples were startled from their peaceful slumbers by the tolling of the bells in the three hundred churches of that splendid capital. In the general agitation caused by this unusual alarm, the first idea that entered the minds of the people was that the town was on fire, or that a hostile army had silently disembarked under cover of the night, and was about to put the citizens to the world. But the doleful and intermittent sounds of the bells, which breaking the silence of the night at regular intervals, invited the faithful to recite prayers for the dying, soon convinced them that no misfortune threatened the town, and that the king only was in danger. In fact, for several days previously, the greatest anxiety had been observed to prevail within the Castle-Nuovo.
