Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Les Chroniques de la Canongate, Vol. 2: La Jolie Fille de Perth, ou le Jour de Saint-Valentin; (St.-Valentine's Day, Or The Fair Maid Of Perth)
Pour moi, dit le comte de March, j'ai apercu les braves citoyens de Perth donnant la chasse a quelques droles portant il est vrai le coeur sanglant sur leurs epaules; mais ils fuyaient trop vite pour appartenir au comte de Douglas.
Douglas comprit la raillerie, et n'y repondit que par un de ces regards sombres qui exprimaient ordinaire ment son ressentiment.
