Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Lost Commander: Florence Nightingale A rosebud set with little wilful thorns, And sweet as English air could make her, she. -Alfred Tennyson. Long years ago. A hundred and more of them, but the red brick walls and gables and chimneys of Embley stood that June day in Hampshire, and had stood for two hundred years, as they stand to-day, a picture house set in garden and forest. Two thousand acres are of its domain now, some hundreds more than there were back in the eighteen-twenties; a few changes have been made, indoors and out; but the place is cared for by wise and affectionate hands and the small alterations have left its ancient quality unspoiled. As it lifts its ruddy stateliness to-day out of the acres, above quiet English lanes which come to its park gates, as it looks to-day so it looked on the June afternoon when a little girl pushed open the door from the hall and slipped out. On a graveled walk along the terrace she turned and looked gravely up at her nurse. "Be careful, Miss Florence," spoke the nurse.
