Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Philip Rollo, Vol. 2 of 2: Or, the Scottish Musketeers A week glided away at the quiet old castle of Nyekiöbing. Every day the old queen rode forth on a fat Danish horse, accompanied by Ernestine and other ladies; every day, at the same hour as yesterday, the guard presented arms at the gate - the officers saluted - the drum rolled the pipe yelled, and for the remainder of that day all became quiet again. A few ships now - but very few, for war had desolated the cities of the coast - spread their white sails on the waters of the Sound, and listlessly we watched them from the lower ramparts, where moss and grass grew under the wheels of the unused cannon. I saw Ernestine frequently, but always briefly and in presence of her father; so that no opportunity was afforded to me for addressing her as my heart wished, and as vanity and hope told me she, perhaps, expected. As our commandant, Ian was, more than I, about the queens little court; I envied his opportunities of enjoying the society of the two charming sisters; and I frequently saw him in the garden with Gabrielle leaning on his arm; for, though grave and somewhat thoughtful, he told me that he loved her prattle, for it reminded him of Moina.
